168 used to specify less commonality before messages are printed
169 (i.e. __--less-than__=''2'' will only print the unique
170 messages). Translations, comments and extract comments will
171 be preserved, but only from the first PO file to define
172 them. File positions from all PO files will be
173 preserved.
