MSGCOMM(1) User Commands MSGCOMM(1)
msgcomm - match two message catalogs
msgcomm [OPTION] [INPUTFILE]...
Find messages which are common to two or more of the specified PO
files. By using the --more-than option, greater commonality may
be requested before messages are printed. Conversely, the
--less-than option may be used to specify less commonality before
messages are printed (i.e. --less-than=2 will only print the
unique messages). Translations, comments and extracted comments
will be preserved, but only from the first PO file to define
them. File positions from all PO files will be cumulated.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short
options too.
