jpayne@68 56 Uniforum style .po files together. The def.po file is an
jpayne@68 57 existing PO file with translations which will be taken over
jpayne@68 58 to the newly created file as long as they still match;
jpayne@68 59 comments will be preserved, but extracted comments and file
jpayne@68 60 positions will be discarded. The ref.pot file is the last
jpayne@68 61 created PO file with up-to-date source
jpayne@68 62 references but old translations, or a PO Template file
jpayne@68 63 (generally created by xgettext); any translations or
jpayne@68 64 comments in the file will be discarded, however dot comments
jpayne@68 65 and file positions will be preserved. Where an exact match
jpayne@68 66 cannot be found, fuzzy matching is used to produce better
jpayne@68 67 results.</p>
