Much of the manual is generated automatically from the docstrings for
individual functions, so it would make sense to translate those
separately and for Octave to have some way to use those translations,
Right, of course. Translated Manuals should be handled just like the
English one. At run-time, Octave can use an environment variable to
decide which language to display. On U* systems LANG tells what the
current language is. When compiling from source it may make sense
to provide a list of languages to include, using the standard naming
convention used by LANG.
