This is really verry strange, if you have a look in the script you can
see it doesn't do much by itself, instead it relies on make to do the
compilation and rstconv to prepare the po skeleton and updatepofiles
to update all po files to the most recent version of the po generated
by rstconv, there should be no reason for it to do this.
Manually typing the commands found in the script should have the same
effect as the script itself wich does nothing directly, exactly like
the linux version.
The only problem is that programmers would rather not type the
commands manually for all the language sections so i made this script.
