OK, let me help you, though I'm only a Japanese who is never confident in my
English.
(1)
As Fujii-san pointed out, could you add explanation for --help-variables in
doc/src/sgml/ref/psqlref.sgml?
(2)
+ printf(_(" --help-variables list of available configuration
variables (options), then exit\n"));
should better be:
+ printf(_(" --help-variables show A list of all specially treated
variables, then exit\n"));
This follows the psql manual page. Similarly,
+ printf(_("List of variables (options) for use from command line.\n"));
should be:
+ printf(_("List of specially treated variables.\n"));
(3)
+ printf(_(" ECHO control what input can be writtent to
standard output [all, queries]\n"));
"writtent" should be "written". "controls" should be "control" like other
options.
(4)
+ printf(_(" ECHO_HIDDEN display internal queries (same as -E
option)\n"));
should better be:
+ printf(_(" ECHO_HIDDEN display internal queries executed by
backslash commands\n"));
I think "(same as ...)" can be omitted to keep the description short. If
you want to retain it, other variables should also accompany similar
description, such as -a for ECHO.
(5)
+ printf(_(" FETCH_COUNT fetch many rows at a time (use less memory)
(default 0 unlimited)\n"));
should better be:
+ printf(_(" FETCH_COUNT the number of result rows to fetch and
display at a time (default: 0=unlimited)\n"));
(6)
+ printf(_(" HISTCONTROL when set, controls history list
[ignorespace, ignoredups, ignoreboth]\n"));
should better be:
+ printf(_(" HISTCONTROL control history list [ignorespace,
ignoredups, ignoreboth]\n"));
(7)
+ printf(_(" USER the database user currently connected\n"));
should add "as" at the end:
+ printf(_(" USER the database user currently connected
as\n"));
(8)
"Printing options" section lack the following ones described in psql manual:
columns
expanded (or x)
footer
numericlocale
tableattr (or T)
(9)
+ printf(_("\nEnvironment options:\n"));
should be ""Environment variables". And this section lacks description for
Windows, such as:
+ printf(_(" NAME=VALUE [NAME=VALUE] psql ...\n or \\setenv NAME [VALUE]
in interactive mode\n\n"));
+ printf(_(" PGPASSFILE password file (default ~/.pgpass)\n"));
