This adds a tool, linst2pot.php, which extracts all of the strings that should be translated for a LINST format instrument into a .pot file for translators.
The tool reads the linst from stdin and writes the pot to stdout.
It also adds a --stdout argument to lorisform_parser to have it print to stdout instead of ip_output.txt, so that it can be composed with a pipe.
To generate pot files for all instruments in the project directory you should be able to do something like:
and then have them translated.
