NAME
       msgcat - combines several message catalogs

SYNOPSIS
       msgcat [OPTION] [INPUTFILE]...

DESCRIPTION
       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 mes‐
       sages 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, com‐
       ments, 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.
