# 2.3. The Catalog Manager

The Catalog Manager merges two directories into one tree and displays all PO- and POT-files in these directories. This way you can easily see if a new template has been added or removed. Also some informations of the files are displayed in the Catalog Manager: total number, number of fuzzy and number of untranslated entries, the last revision and the last translator of the file.

To make it easier for you to find files, that need work or that are missing, the status of the files is also displayed with an icon:

- The messages in this file are all translated.

- Some messages in this file are fuzzy or untranslated

- This file does not exists in the directory of the PO-files.

- This file contains syntax errors.

If an icon is marked with this icon , like , it indicates, that this file or directory does not exist in the directory of the POT-files.

You can mark or unmark a file by selecting Toggle Marking in the context menu of a file. If you want to toggle or remove all markings in a directory, press the right mouse button over this directory and select Toggle Markings or Remove Markings. The markings are automatically saved when leaving KBabel.

To open a file, double click on the file, or select it and press either Return or Ctrl-O, or select Open from the context menu.

You can configure the Catalog Manager either by clicking Configure... at the bottom or in section Catalog Manager of the preferences dialog. See section Preferences for more details.
