NAME
       kateenc - create Kate streams from text input

SYNOPSIS
       kateenc [-hVM] [-o outfile] [-l language] [-c category] [-s serial] [-C
       tag=value] [-R threshold] [-K threshold] -t filetype [ infile ]

DESCRIPTION
       kateenc creates Kate streams from input files  (SubRip  SRT  subtitles,
       LRC  lyrics, and libkate's custom description language).	 When saved to
       an Ogg stream (the default behavior), a Kate stream may then be	merged
       with other Ogg streams (eg, a Theora video) using the oggz tools.

OPTIONS
       -h     Show command line help.

       -V     Show version information.

       -M     Allow simple HTML-like markup in SRT files. If this parameter is
	      used, strings such as "<i>" will be interpreted to mean italics,
	      rather  than appear as such. Note that various players interpret
	      a slightly different set of HTML tags, and some do not.

       -o outfile
	      Write the output Kate stream to the given file name  (writes  to
	      stdout if not specified).

       -l language
	      Sets the language for the stream (default is the language speci‐
	      fied in the input, or none).

       -c category
	      Sets the category for the stream (default is the category speci‐
	      fied in the input, or none).

       -s serial
	      Sets  the	 serial	 number	 for  the output Kate stream (does not
	      apply to raw streams).

       -C tag=value
	      Adds a comment to encode into the output Kate stream.  The  com‐
	      ment  must  be of the form tag=value, and comply with the Vorbis
	      comment rules (eg, tag is composed of  a	particular  subset  of
	      ASCII characters, and value is valid UTF-8). Note that you might
	      have to escape or quote the comment for it to be seen as a  sin‐
	      gle command line parameter.

       -t filetype
	      Specifies the type of the input (srt, lrc, kate)

       -R threshold
	      Use repeat packets, with the given threshold (in seconds).  Data
	      packets will be repeated at intervals of roughly threshold  sec‐
	      onds, while active.

       -K threshold
	      Use  keepalive  packets,	with the given threshold (in seconds).
	      Keepalive packets will be emitted when no other packet has  been
	      emitted for roughly threshold seconds.

EXAMPLES
       Create a Kate stream for Welsh subtitles from a SubRip file:

	   kateenc -t srt -l cy -c SUB -o output.ogg input.srt
