PO and MO files

I will show how to use MO and PO files by example. In the example, we support two locale, zh_TW (Traditional Chinese) and vi_VN (Vietnamese). The zh_TW PO file are located at locale/zh_TW/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po and vi_VN PO file are located at locale/vi_VN/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po.

zh_TW PO file locale/zh_TW/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po:

Generate corresponding MO files by msgfmt. Put MO files together with PO files. So we have two PO files and two MO files:

locale/zh_TW/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po
locale/zh_TW/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo
locale/vi_VN/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po
locale/vi_VN/LC_MESSAGES/messages.mo
