Converters
Converters change many different formats to PO and back again. Sometimes only
one direction is supported, or conversion is done using non-PO formats. The
converters follow a general pattern of usage,
understanding that will make the converters much easier to use and understand.

Scripts
The scripts are for working with and manipulating PO files. Unlike the
tools
which are written in Python, the scripts are written in bash
.
Some of them are packaged since version 1.0 of the Toolkit, but you might need
to download them from version control and do a manual installation .
