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
   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

   -N, --no-fuzzy-matching
          do not use fuzzy matching

   --use-fuzzy
          consider fuzzy entries

   --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
          output version information and exit
