Sorry, I did read but should go back to it now and then, to remember it.
I did that and indeed there's a bunch of diffs which I will attack. When 
the command shows no output, then the whole thing is updated?

Got it, have to place lilypond.mo in /usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/

I compiled the es.po first as UTF-8 and the terminal shows weird strings 
in Ubuntu.
Then I compiled the es.po as ISO-8859-1 and then the terminal appeared 
correctly, so I guess for now, I will use ISO-8859-1.

Ok, for the moment let's remove es_MX.po, and I'll work only in es.po. 
After compiling it and placing it in the proper location I tried some 
lilypond code that would show errors to see the output in spanish and it 
looks great so far. I also fixed some strings which overlapped in the 
standard xterm size, so I'm attaching the diff.
