New command: make-mo #141
Description
Some 3rd party translation services/solutions can provide a .po file only.
And a lot of manual work is needed to generate .mo files out of them (imagine several plugins translated into several languages - and multiple to get the number of .mo files needed to be generated manually).
It would be helpful, if there was a wp i18n make-mo command, that should accept the directory with .po files and output generated .mo files with the same name.

@slaFFik You can accomplish what you're looking for with the following:
Of course, this solution assumes you're on a UNIX system, your
.pofiles exist in a folder namedlanguages, and you havegettextinstalled and in your PATH...It would really be nice if there was a platform agnostic
make-mocommand. @swissspidy Is there any plan to make one?swissspidy commentedon May 20, 2020
@EvanShaw At the moment I personally don't have much time to look into this, but contributions would be always welcome :-) Otherwise we'll get to this eventually.
Add `wp i18n make-mo` command.

I think README.md should be updated as well with this new command.

Yes, it should. I'm currently experimenting with automating this via a GitHub Actions workflow, so keeping this open for testing.
Add `wp i18n make-mo` command.
