Basic would be fun though...

Think it would be --lang=deutsch. Gotta internationalize the command-line flags too!

You are all being silly.

Obviously we would translate the name of the command itself, and the language would be implied

Absolutely. If we do localization of UI texts, the command line options should be included :)

It's already there, I've often seen console output with translated error messages. Helpful for the users but not of much use to developers, unless using error codes as well

More like 'Haupt.py'. ('Haut' is 'skin') But in German that alone would translate back to 'head.py', so you might want to give some more context to it like 'Hauptdatei.py' ('main file.py').
