msgcmp - compare message catalog and template
msgcmp [OPTION] def.po ref.pot
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

Informative output:
-h, --help
display this help and exit
-V, --version
