I actually use poedit <http://www.poedit.org/>, which usually succeeds
in generating mo files :)
Do you think typing 'msgfmt -o target.mo source.po' falls under the
'very hard to use' category? Yes - that is the only thing you must do in
order to obtain a .mo file from a po and the po using gettext. You could
generate the po using your favorite (and obvoiusly
generating-no-mo-files-for-now) translating program like kbabel, poedit
etc. and then... 'msgfmt -o target.mo source.po' and you get the mo.
