Web Translation tool

[Oliver Kellogg]

I had come across that exact question and made a script that does this (for
eo), see
https://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-support/eo/scripts/svncopy2po.sh?view=log
It  is somewhat specific for my purposes, e.g. the language is hard coded
and on creating the pot -> po copy a further script is called which
pre-translates commonly found strings using a translation database (
initpo.pl)
but with a bit of stripping down it could be useful.

Hope this helps,

Oliver
