NAME
msgcmp - compare message catalog and template
SYNOPSIS
msgcmp [OPTION] def.po ref.pot
DESCRIPTION
Compare two Uniforum style .po files to check that both con-
tain the same set of msgid strings. The def.po file is an
existing PO file with the translations. The ref.pot file is
the last created PO file, or a PO Template file (generally
created by xgettext). This is useful for checking that you
have translated each and every message in your program.
Where an exact match cannot be found, fuzzy matching is used
to produce better diagnostics.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short
options too.
Input file location:
def.po
translations
ref.pot
references to the sources
-D, --directory=DIRECTORY
add DIRECTORY to list for input files search
Operation modifiers:
-m, --multi-domain
apply ref.pot to each of the domains in def.po
--use-fuzzy

--use-untranslated
consider untranslated entries
Input file syntax:
-P, --properties-input
input files are in Java .properties syntax
--stringtable-input
input files are in NeXTstep/GNUstep .strings syntax
Informative output:
-h, --help
display this help and exit
-V, --version
