Hello,

Yesterday I had the time to test out build-i18n.xml under Windows XP
(Pro). It would be nice if people with not-XP Windows systems (2k, 98,
2003) could test the updated build file. Here a short Howto:

- download gettext from
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gettext.htm (Setup for Complete
packages, except sources)

- install gettext into a directory of your choice, e.g. 
C:\Program Files\GnuWin32

- now go to START > Control Panel > System and "Environment
variables" (tab "Extended"?)

-> there we need to add the path to the gettext binaries to PATH (system
environment variable) -> double click on the PATH variable should open a
window with two lines: the variable name and the variable value(s) ->
now add the install-path + "bin" (there all binaries are located) at the
end of the value line (the values are separated by semicolon):

PATH
....;C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin;

Confirm and you are done. To test if PATH is correct, open a Windows
shell (START > Run : type "cmd" or "command" and hit Enter). In the
shell type: xgettext --help. If that gives you the help output of
xgettext, you are done.

Please test it on Windows systems other than XP Pro, because I don't
know, if 'forwardslash="true"' works on all windows systems, so I maybe
have to add the os attribute to the create-...-pot targets, so only the
other targets can be run on all systems. Please also test it for Mac if
possible.

Regards, Daniel
