There are no strict rules.  Just run each of the programs with the
--help option, and make sure that the output looks reasonable.

Some translators stick to 80 characters per line (splitting the line if 
too long), others let lines run long.  Most keep the same alignment
column as in the original language, but this is not a requirement
either.

psql also has:
psql --help=variables
psql --help=commands
I'm not aware of others.

Spanish has quite a mess, I now realize :-(
