Ah! Forget it! :) Its just plain usage:

---------------------------------------------------------
Want a third language?
Create the directory:
$mkdir -p pt/LC_MESSAGES

Then first create a new po with:
$msginit -l pt_BR -o pt_BR-hallowelt.po -i hallowelt-neue.pot
================> pt_BR-hallowelt.po <================

Edit the "po" file! Then, compile it to a mo file
$msgfmt -c -v -o pt_BR-hallo.mo pt_BR-hallowelt.po
================> hallo.mo <================

Copy it to the correct location and change the name
$cp pt_BR-hallo.mo pt/LC_MESSAGES/hallo.mo
And its ready. Run it!
================> $ ./hallowelt pt <================
Ola, mundo!
================> $ ./hallowelt pt -h <================
uso: ./hallowelt LA [-h]
onde LA = pt, en ou C


----------------

Ok! Problem solved. Now, about this one here:

I'm still trying to figure it out.

Thanks,
