[MonoDevelop] generating pot file not working in trunk

[Jacob Ilsø Christensen]

Hi.

The POTFILES.in file is a list of all files in MonoDevelop that contain
translatable strings.

The problem is that this file has to be kept in up-to-date manually. Each
time a translatable string is used in some source file not listed in
POTFILES.in, POTFILES.in must be updated to reflect this. The script I wrote
is an attempt to discover what files need to be added to POTFILES.in.
