NAME

       gaupol - editor for text-based subtitle files

SYNOPSIS

       gaupol [OPTION...] [FILE...] [+[NUM]]

DESCRIPTION

       gaupol  is  an  editor  for  text-based  subtitle  files.   It supports
       multiple subtitle file formats and provides means of  correcting  texts
       and timing subtitles to match video.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Show command line options.

       --version
              Show version number.

       -c, --config-file=FILE
              Set the configuration file to use instead of the default.

       -e, --encoding=ENCODING
              Set the character encoding to use for opening files.

       --list-encodings
              List possible character encodings to use with --encoding.

       +[NUM] Go to subtitle number NUM in the opened file.  If NUM is missing
              go to the last subtitle.

       -t, --translation-file=FILE
              Open translation file.

       -a, --align-method=METHOD
              Method used to align translation file’s subtitle texts with main
              document’s   subtitles.   Possible   values   are  ’number’  and
              ’position’.  The  default  is  ’position’,  which  compares  the
              positions  in  the  main  document  and the translation file and
              inserts the translation texts so  that  those  positions  match.
              Existing  subtitles are skipped and new ones inserted as needed.
              ’number’  discards  position  information  and  inserts  the   N
              translation texts into the first N subtitles.

       -v, --video-file=FILE
              Select video file.
