[wp-polyglots] Creating a POT file for my WP plugin?

[Viper007Bond]

poEdit can do this? Well I'll be! Already have that installed and I've 
been using it to edit .po/.mo files, but didn't realize that it could 
parse PHP files and extract all the strings from it.

And yeah, I'm on top of load_plugin_textdomain() and all that. :D

Thanks! :)
