Unfortunately, the tool I am using to extract the strings (process

So, I had the idea of sending you, GNU roff developers, this message.
Some questions:
1 - Is it possible technically to design a pos-processor to output to

2 - Do you have any ideas/suggestions to ease the translation process
of manpages?

aware of in this area.
