I have made a new module for gallery. I need to translate it to other languages. I can generate .raw file by running /gallery2/lib/tools/po/extract.php. How to generate .po files from .raw files?
I have dowloaded poedit, but it does not understand .raw files.

(and this is much easier in Gallery 3, where you don't need to use the command line and don't to install anything special.)

Yes, I have read it. Have you tried to translate anything on Windows?
how do you run make without having linux?
I had an existing MSYS installation. I downloaded windows gettext utilities into /usr/local/bin and ran make, but I got errors. Anyway make produced a strings.raw file. Which I guess may be edited by poedit.
Could someone post instructions for Windows users?

No. I'm not familiar with MSYS. Have you tried cygwin?

If I had time I'd try to get it working on Windows, but I don't. You could try booting to a live CD of Ubuntu, maybe having to install the tools you need and trying to do what you need there and email the finished files to yourself?

Sorry, I know if you're not familiar with the command line on Linux that both cygwin or even the Ubuntu live CD could be steep learning curves. I also don't know if the Ubuntu Live CD would come with everything you need without having to install something may require a reboot and thus loose everything you did...
