convert *.po file to *.pot I need to convert *.PO file (binary gettext file), and I need to convert it to *.POT file(source gettext file), I did it via : msgfilter -i my pofile.po -o mypot.pot true But it didn't generate my translations, It only generate my msgid. Question is How can I generate source gettext file via my *.po file without eliminating translations?

*.PO is not compiled , if you want to generate compiled getetxt you can do the following commands:


msgcat related-fa_IR.pot | msgfmt -o related-fa_IR.mo -


OR


msgcat related-fa_IR.po | msgfmt -o related-fa_IR.mo -


*.mo is compiled file.
