Make XML documents translatable through PO files
历史
ITS Tool is a command-line localization utility for turning XML documents into gettext-style PO workflows. Its niche is the intersection of XML documentation, GNU translation tooling, and the W3C Internationalization Tag Set rules that decide what text should be extracted or preserved.
The project is developed primarily by Shaun McCance and is published as GPL-3.0-or-later free software. Version 1.0.0 was tagged in April 2011, and the project site presents the tool as a way to make XML documents translatable through PO files while applying standard ITS rules plus ITS Tool extensions.
The 2.0.0 release in 2013 was a major standards-alignment point: its NEWS file lists support for several ITS 2.0 data categories, parameters, DocBook 5 built-in rules, and changes that replaced older custom extensions with ITS 2.0 mechanisms. Later 2.0.x releases concentrated on Python 3 compatibility, XML/libxml2 fixes, macOS file writing fixes, and performance improvements.
ITS Tool became a small but durable packaging-system utility because it solves a recurring documentation localization problem without requiring each XML project to invent its own extractor. Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, Arch, MacPorts, Nix, Alpine, Ubuntu, and openSUSE packaging in the input metadata show its role as distribution infrastructure rather than a general-purpose end-user application.
The documented workflow is to create POT files from XML and then create translated XML from MO files. Package users usually encounter it in documentation build chains for XML-heavy formats such as DocBook and Mallard, where PO files let translators update individual messages as source documents change.
Package maintainers care about ITS Tool because it is glue: it connects W3C ITS metadata, XML documentation formats, and gettext catalogs. That makes it one of the quiet build-time dependencies that keeps localized Unix documentation reproducible across distributions.
