ABOUT
================================================================================

The goal of the Translation Template Extractor project is to provide
command line and web based Gettext translation template extractor
functionality for Drupal. These translation templates are used by
teams to translate Drupal to their language of choice. There are
basically two ways to use the contents of this project:

 * The potx Drush command provided by the module. Examples:

   1. Extract translatable strings from applicable files in current directory
	   and write to single output file.
	   drush potx single
	   drush potx (By default, mode = single)

   2. Extract translatable strings from applicable files of example module and
	   write to module-specific output file.
	   drush potx multiple --modules=example

   3. Extract translatable strings from example.module and write to single
	   output file.
	   drush potx --files=sites/all/modules/example/example.module

   4. Extract strings from folder 'projects/drupal/8' using API version 8.
	   drush potx single --api=8 --folder=projects/drupal/8

 * Install the module on a Drupal site as you would with any other
   module. Once potx module is turned on, you can go to the
   "Extract" tab on the "User interface translation" page, select
   the module or modules or theme or themes you want to have a translation
   template for, and submit the form. You will get one single template file
   generated.

   Note: If you only get a white browser screen as response to the
   extraction request, the memory limit for PHP on the server is probably
   too low, try to set that higher.
