My name is Hector Elias, and I have began reading the NVDA addon development guide. I have a simple question regarding this manual. Under the section of
“Setting up your development environment” where it is talking about the gettext software, I find the following line:
◦ Once downloaded, copy both exe files to your add-on development folder. See the next section for a description of the add-on folder structure.

Sorry, I thought I had clarified that section.

The two files you need are:

msgfmt.exe
xgettext.exe

In order to stop carrying these files in repos, or having to exempt them, and since I discontinued my own build environment and started using Appveyor, I have a gist for those files, and you are welcome to use that directly or download them as you see fit.
