Usage: $0 <subcommand> language_code

Available subcommands:
    init
            creates a new folder for a new language
    update
            updates an existing language file with new Strings from the sources
    gen
            generates the parsed language file

update and gen also accept the wildcard language_code ALL

Suggested Workflows (with XX as language_code):
    New Language
        1. $0 init XX
        2. translation of ${ROOT}i18n/XX/LC_MESSAGES/glances.po
        3. $0 gen XX
    Update Language
        1. $0 update XX
        2. update translations of ${ROOT}i18n/XX/LC_MESSAGES/glances.po
        3. $0 gen XX
