+These options can either be specified on the command-line, or in the
+``setup.cfg`` file. In the latter case, the options above become entries of the
+section ``[extract_messages]``, and the option names are changed to use
+underscore characters instead of dashes, for example:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+    [extract_messages]
+    keywords = _, gettext, ngettext
+    mapping_file = babel.cfg
+    width = 80
+
+This would be equivalent to invoking the command from the command-line as
+follows::
+
+    $ setup.py extract_messages -k _ -k gettext -k ngettext -F mapping.cfg -w 80

+file. For boolean options, use "true" or "false" values.

+new_catalog
+===========
+
+The ``new_catalog`` command is basically equivalent to the GNU ``msginit``
+program: it creates a new translation catalog based on a PO template file (POT).
+
+If the command has been correctly installed or registered, another project's
+``setup.py`` script should allow you to use the command::
+
+    $ ./setup.py new_catalog --help

+      --verbose (-v)  run verbosely (default)
+      --quiet (-q)    run quietly (turns verbosity off)
+      --dry-run (-n)  don't actually do anything
+      --help (-h)     show detailed help message
+
+    Options for 'new_catalog' command:

+
+Running the command will produce a PO file::
+
+    $ ./setup.py new_catalog -l fr -i foobar/locales/messages.pot \
