Is this project still maintained?

from betterpoeditor.

It's an open-source project, so anyone can contribute.
About your specific problem: your comments don't follow the gettext rules, since they should start with a # followed by two spaces: see http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/gettext.html#The-Format-of-PO-Files

Thanks for the info. Other PO editors have no problem with that comment, but I found your editor to be better for this project as I can save in ANSI format; all others force to UTF-8, which this particular translation project doesn't support. I'll see if a newer version of the Harbour compiler adds two spaces after the # and if so, that would solve the issue for me (atm, not capable of modifying your code).
Thanks.

Sorry to bother again... I added the extra space. Here are the first few lines:

This file is generated by Harbour 3.2.0dev (Rev. 18103)

#: ./Assembly.prg:291 ./Events.prg:2540 ./Forms.prg:3573 ./Forms.prg:3587
#, c-format
msgid "Abacus Forms"
msgstr ""

Yet I get this error message from BetterPOEditor:

BetterPOEditor

Error at lines 1~3:

Unknown entry kind.

OK

For now I'll just remove those 3 lines as they're not
really needed for the translation process.

Regards,
