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 contain 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 pro-
gram. 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
Informative output:
-h, --help
display this help and exit
-V, --version
output version information and exit
