It seems fine AFAIK, but why not using a Makefile? IMHO it would be more
appropriate as it would easily allow to compile .mo file only if the .po
file has been updated. In addition,  maybe you could try to use msgmerge
which  allows  to  propagate  changes   from  .pot  file  to  .po  files
automatically. I can write a Makefile quickly for FormEncode if you want
to as I did it some days before for a university assignment...
