<para
>The Catalogue Manager merges two folders into one tree and displays all the <acronym

<sect1 id="catman-features">
<title
>&cataloguemanager; Features</title>
<para
>Besides the main feature for opening the files in &kbabel; &cataloguemanager; supports number of other features for maintaining a tree of <acronym
>PO</acronym
>-files. </para>

<sect2 id="catman-find">
<title
>Find and replace in multiple files</title>
<para
>One of the most requested features for &kbabel; was a possibility to search and replace in multiple files at once. &cataloguemanager; supports this feature with a tight integration with &kbabel; </para>
</sect2>

<sect2 id="catman-statistics">
<title
>Statistics</title>
<para
>&cataloguemanager; can show you a number of statistics about a single file or about the whole folders. The statistics contain number of files, how many of the files have their templates, how many templates are missing. It also counts number of messages in the files and shows statistics about how large parts of the messages are translated, fuzzy-translated or untranslated. </para>
</sect2>

<sect2 id="catman-syntax">
<title
>Checking the syntax</title>
<para
>This allows you to check the syntax of multiple <acronym
>PO</acronym
>-files using <command
>msgfmt</command
>. If a file fails this check, it cannot be used for generating a <acronym
>MO</acronym
>-file for binary distribution. Such an incorrect file will typically result in failing compilation of the package the <acronym
>PO</acronym
>-file belongs to. </para>
</sect2>

<sect2 id="catman-commands">
<title
>User-defined commands</title>
<para
>Because &cataloguemanager; cannot provide any functionality you would like to use, you can extend it by defining your own commands. </para>
<para
>There are two sets of commands. One for folders and one for single files. You can set them in <link linkend="preferences-catalogmanager"
>configuration dialogue </link
> and access by pressing &RMB; on an entry in the file list.</para>
