message?
The welcome message is take from $GISBASE/locale/<locale>/etc/welcome if
it exists.
The help text could be handled similarly, except that the text currently
undergoes some variable substitutions ($CMD_NAME and $DEFAULT_GUI). That
could be handled with sed, e.g.:
{{{
sed -e "s/@CMD_NAME@/$CMD_NAME/" -e "s/@DEFAULT_GUI@/$DEFAULT_GUI/" <
$GISBASE/locale/$LOCALE/etc/helpmsg
}}}
