   CrowTranslate can be used offline with a local setup of LibreTranslate,   
   which in itself is (mostly) a webservice wrapper to the ArgosTranslate   
   library. LibreTranslate can be installed on localhost (aka your PC), on   
   a directly linked NAS, etc.   
      
   But if ArgosTranslate is installed, it could already be used without any   
   detours to LibreTranslate and/or CrowTranslate. Beside the basic command   
   line usage, there's also a GUI for ArgosTranslate available.   
      
   Problem is, ArgosTranslate only runs inside a whole Python environment.   
   No compiled Windows binaries exist, because the program has too many   
   dependencies.

   For everybody, who already has a suitable Python environment set up (or   
   is not averse to install it), ArgosTranslate should be worth a try.
