# Adding new strings
<p class="lead">Technical details for people who wish to add new strings for
translation.</p>
You will need to install the Locale::Maketext::Extract package in order to
parse strings out of templates:
$ cpanm -l local-carton Locale::Maketext::Extract
A new clean `.po` file, containing all the strings marked for translation in
the code and templates, can be created by running the `bin/gettext-extract`
script.
export PERL5LIB="local-carton/lib/perl5:local/lib/perl5"
export PATH="local-carton/bin:$PATH"
bin/gettext-extract
To merge in new strings with the existing translations:
bin/gettext-merge
To compile translations into `.mo` files:
commonlib/bin/gettext-makemo
You may find it helpful to add an alias to your .gitconfig:
[alias]
podiff = "!f() { git diff --color $@ | grep -v '^ ' | grep -v @@ | grep -v '#:' | less -FRSX; }; f"
Then `git podiff locale` will show you actual changes, rather than all the
changes to comments and line numbers.
