====== poen ======

<note warning>
poen has been removed from Translate Toolkit > 1.2.  Rather use [[podebug]] as follows:
<code>
podebug --rewrite=en -f "" pot/ po/
</code>
</note>

Initialises a directory English PO files by taking POT files and copying the msgid to the msgstr.  

This is useful for translators who use CAT tools that overwrite/overtype existing text.  They can setup their tool to overwrite msgstr entries which will now be in English.
