How to get .po files from .mo

Question

I have a question for you. I have my translations .mo files but I want to get the .po files, is there a way to do this? My file source is :

/ressource
  /translation
    /es_ES.UTF-8
      /LC_MESSAGES
        test.mo

I tried :

msgunfmt /ressource/translation/mo/es_ES.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/test.mo > /ressource/translation/mo/es_ES.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/test.po but not result

Help me please

There are several online tools that do that using msgfmt. Here is one of them.

If you want to do it locally from the terminal just call:

msgunfmt /ressource/translation/mo/es_ES.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/test.mo

There are indeed several tools, one of them is Poedit. It is an install you can use for making .mo and .po files.

@Bono To be fair, this is a link to a tool. How does one summarise a tool in an answer? – Duncan Jones Mar 09 '15 at 15:38
