Thanks to Nick and Jambunathan I have got a minimal setup to be able to
type in English (roman script) and easily transliterate to Sanskrit
(Devanagari).
Now I am exploring how I could 'zip' the two together. My requirements are
like this:
I will be teaching singing to a mixed group using a projector. Those who
can read sanskrit would be put off by the roman (English) and those who
cant of course need the roman.
The attached screenshot shows two emacs buffers side-by-side with the two
versions.
I am now exploring the possibilities of how to make a 'presentation'
putting the two together.
I am not too comfortable using emacs for the final show because emacs
occasionally crashes -- due to non-standard fonts, input methods or what I
dont know -- and I dont want this to happen in front of 50 people!
Any thoughts/suggestions?

If I may add, xelatex should let you export presentations with both
Roman and Devanagari text. You might find the following thread useful.

"S5 and other HTML slide show frameworks have (at least) one great
advantage over Beamer, one can embed (there are at least two ways) SVG

...
* One very simple way to make presentations in EMACS (that I did in a grad
school presentation--worked well) :
Put a unique breakpoint in your presentation document like a string "====="
one per page and/or sections you want to talk about during class/sing along.
Then simply do Control-s (search for string) ===== at the beginning of the
presentation
Then to "turn the page"/go to the next/previous "slide" is simply a matter
of repeating Cs and/or Cr (search-string-backwards) once per slide (song
stanza in your case).
** KISS method == Keep It Simple/Stupid
* Now, I know Nick and Jambunathan set up the method to put the translation
side-by-side; but, how did they do that? Can't find it in this thread (if I
may call it that) "[O] multilingual presentation with org"--is there a link
to how you set up the English<=>Sanskrit side-by-side?

We didn't: what Jambunathan and I did was to help Rustom deal with input
methods in batch mode: start with a file of transliterated text and
produce the actual text. That was done mostly in private email, but
Rustom has updated a thread on gnu.emacs.help with those
suggestions: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.help/83724

* Quoting the original query:
"I will be teaching singing to a mixed group using a projector. Those who
can read sanskrit would be put off by the roman (English) and those who
cant of course need the roman.
The attached screenshot shows two emacs buffers side-by-side with the two
versions.
I am now exploring the possibilities of how to make a 'presentation'
putting the two together.
I am not too comfortable using emacs for the final show because emacs
occasionally crashes -- due to non-standard fonts, input methods or what I
dont know -- and I dont want this to happen in front of 50 people!
Any thoughts/suggestions?"
** Ideas: I strongly suggest EMACS and learn how to use EDIFF in EMACS--its
the best envirionment for translations and what you want to do--don't toss
out EMACS because it crashed once: suggest you test it before the
demo/presentation sing-along.
*** How to stop it from crashing: Use only what is necessary to show your
SANSKRIT and ENGLISH buffer: Do something like:
Make 2 files with line numbers at the begin of each line:
nl sanskrit-song.txt > sanskrit-song_line-numbers-at-front.txt
nl english-song.txt > english-song_line-numbers-at-front.txt
emacs -q -l
sanskit-blah-mule-multilingual-emacs-programs-needed-to-show-sanskrit.el
sanskrit-song_line-numbers-at-front.txt english-song_line-numbers-at-front.txt
Mx ediff-buffers
Emacs will pop-up an ediff window--put your mouse cursor on it and tap
"?"--it will show you the ediff keys--"n" for "next different line" will be
most helpful
(ediff will ask for the 1st and 2nd buffer you want to compare--type
in sanskrit-song_line-numbers-at-front.txt
and english-song_line-numbers-at-front.txt
--then tapping "n" (with your cursor on the popped up ediff window) goes
line-by-songline in both buffers--highlighting the text for a sanskrit
sing-along!
** EDIFF has a slight learning curve; but, a huge pay off.

That'd be cool if it worked, but at least in my case, it doesn't:
diff decides there is one big diff that covers the whole file,
and ediff does not find a "better" refinement: no "n"
to follow the bouncing ball...

* Nick mentioned "no "n" to follow the bouncing ball..."--in jest I
believe; but, seriously, you can do that too with EMACS and XAUTOMATION do:
apt-get install xautomation
(this will install xte I believe)
** well, if you wanted a "bouncing ball" to follow the music, in a say, 1
line per 3 seconds for a presentation/sing-along:
xterm -e watch -p -n3 "xte \"key n\" "
*** Again, you put the cursor on the EDIFF help window --"n" will go line
per line
*** Which will work too; I do something like this everyday (use xte calling
out of EMACS/OrgMode several times a day at least).

I did and it did not. I did it with cat -n at first and then tried nl
just to see if it had some magic (as one might have guessed, no magic):
there is one diff region for the whole buffer, not one per line.

PS. I attach the two files in case you, or somebody else, want to try it
although I'm not sure the attachments are going to make it through the
list unscathed. I'm making them octet-streams to try to preserve the contents
unscathed. Here are SHA1s for them if you want to check (foo.txt.n is
the transliterated file, foo-hi.txt.n is the devanagari)

What Brian is saying is this and I am interpreting.
There is a line by line correspondence between the two files. So,
1. Put the English file under version control and check it in.
2. Overwrite the English file with the Sanskrit file (remember to
preserve line by line correspondence) and check the sanskrit file in.
3. Now do a C-x v u to launch ediff on the two versions of the file. Two
windows will pop up and IIRC, you can arrange for the windows to be
either arranged side by side or one on top of another.
4. Press q on Ediff control panel so that diff overlays are removed
while leaving the windows intact.
5. Now do M-x scroll-all-mode so that the two windows scroll
together. Cursor position in the two windows can be used to guiding
the eyeballs of the audience.
An advanced option will be to siphon off each stanza in the recital in
to separate files of their own and put the sanskrit and english files in
separate directories (but with the same name) as below.
english/stanza1
english/stanza2
sanskrit/stanza1
sanskrit/stanza2
Then one can do M-x ediff-directories to have all the stanzas show up
and then launch ediff on each of the stanzas.

All you need for this is two side-by-side windows with the two files and
scroll-all-mode[fn:1]. Ediff (and source control) is irrelevant -
correct?
If only hl-line-highlight played well with scroll-all-mode...

I might try this to see how it works but it'd take more time than I can
afford right now.
Thanks,
Nick

[fn:1] I was looking for that and didn't find it - thanks for pointing
it out. I thought at first that follow-mode was what was needed,
but that wasn't it.

This is recital.txt.~HEAD~ in the upper window.

Just overwrite but don't check it in. This recital.txt is in the lower
window.

The command should be C-x v = which I have arranged so that it launches
ediff for me with the two buffers arranged one below the other. (I have
some customizations and I can dig out my customization if you need. My
customizations pre-date Emacs-24.1) But Emacs-24.1 does have a
vc-ediff. So I believe C-x v = can rebound to vc-ediff if it isn't
already.
Also note the cursors in the two windows.
> I don't understand what the first four steps do for you.
My setup is so old (and is so part of the way I do commits for as long
as I remember) that I confused myself into thinking that they are part
of Emacs. I am not to blame here, only my memory.

Correct. Ediff is not needed. But it is convenient. No C-x C-fs twice
over or splitting windows (atleast in my case)

We can make a feature request.

I made a small markup language which lets you write it in this way:
-------------------------------------------
A song in English and Sanskrit:
@en bhaja govindam bhaja govindam
@sa भज गोविंदं भज गोविंदं
@en govindam bhaja mUDhamate
@sa गोविंदं भज मूढमते
@en saMprApte sannihite kAle
@sa संप्राप्ते सन्निहिते काले
@en nahi nahi rakShati DukrinkaraNe
@sa नहि नहि रक्षति डुकृंकरणे
-------------------------------------------
You run it through a script and you obtain two files, one with all the @en and the other with all the @sa. The common text goes to both.
The script is at http://www.danielclemente.com/dislines/index.en.html
How to integrate this approach with org's outline… is a challenge. One header per language? One property per language? Inline headers?…

Thanks Daniel -- that looks useful at some stage of the processing. I was
thinking of concocting something like this myself.
My (current main) use is a bit different however. Its not so much
hand-translation as machine-transliteration.
The below elisp code will apply whatever input-method you put into
rpm-input-method and put the result into a new buffer. After that pasting
the two together into something palatable/presentable is the question. For
now Ive used paste -d'|' and then run it through org's table system to
produce html
-----------------------elisp-----------------------------
(defvar rpm-input-method "devanagari-itrans")
(defun rpm-apply-input-method ()
(interactive)
(let* ((inp (buffer-substring-no-properties (point-min) (point-max)))
(filename (file-name-nondirectory (buffer-file-name)))
(outname (concat (file-name-sans-extension filename)
"-hi"
(file-name-extension filename t)))
(p))
(switch-to-buffer-other-frame outname)
(save-excursion
(save-window-excursion
(setq p (point))
(erase-buffer)
(setq buffer-file-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-input-method rpm-input-method t)
(execute-kbd-macro inp)))
(goto-char p)
(other-frame 1)))
(global-set-key [f4] 'rpm-apply-input-method)
