msgcomm - match two message catalogs

Author

       Written by Peter Miller.

Description

       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.
