Gettext: copy msgid to msgstr |

G'day everyone
Is there a gettext tool (for MS Windows) that can duplicate the msgid
filed in a PO file to the msgstr, without changing anything in the
msgid field itself?
I'm a translator. I translate PO files for some clients. These
clients require the msgid field in the the resultant translated PO
file to be completely untouched because they use tools to determine
fuzziness based on minute changes to the msgid field.
My translation tools can't copy the msgid content to the msgstr field,
so I have to do it manually, which takes time and which can accidently
change a space or two in the client's msgid field (which is a bad
thing). I also need to have the msgstr field in a single line, but I
can do that myself without touching the msgid field at all.
I need a tool that will change
msgid ""
"This is a"
"nice tool."
msgstr ""
to
msgid ""
"This is a"
"nice tool."
msgstr ""
"This is a"
"nice tool."
or preferably to
msgid ""
"This is a"
"nice tool."
msgstr "This is a nice tool."
Any ideas?
Thanks!
