Alternatively, if you regularly translate using Gettext PO tools, you can use prop2po (http://translate.sourceforge.n … it/prop2po) from the Translate Toolkit which handles all ASCII escaping automatically.

e.g.
prop2po some.properties some.po
Edit some.po
po2prop -t some.properties some.po some-other.properties

Unescaping from some.properties happens immediately.  You edit some.po in a PO editor in UTF-8. Conversion back takes any Unicode characters and escapes them correctly for Java.  Painless.
