msgcat - combines several message catalogs
msgcat [OPTION] [INPUTFILE]...
Concatenates and merges the specified PO files. 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, extracted comments, and file positions will be cumulated, except that if --use-first is specified, they will be taken from the first PO file to define them. Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too. Input file location: INPUTFILE ... input files -f, --files-from=FILE get list of input files from FILE -D, --directory=DIRECTORY add DIRECTORY to list for input files search If input file is -, standard input is read. Output file location: -o, --output-file=FILE write output to specified file The results are written to standard output if no output file is specified or if it is -. Message selection: -<, --less-than=NUMBER print messages with less than this many definitions, defaults to infinite if not set ->, --more-than=NUMBER print messages with more than this many definitions, defaults to 0 if not set -u, --unique shorthand for --less-than=2, requests that only unique messages be printed Input file syntax: -P, --properties-input input files are in Java .properties syntax --stringtable-input input files are in NeXTstep/GNUstep .strings syntax Output details: -t, --to-code=NAME encoding for output --use-first use first available translation for each message, don't merge several translations --lang=CATALOGNAME set 'Language' field in the header entry --color use colors and other text attributes always --color=WHEN use colors and other text attributes if WHEN.
