md2verse.sh

create .tex from markdown files in verse format This bash-script converts an easy markdown file in aqoaba dialect to LaTeX code. This LaTeX code needs a wrapper LaTeX script with

\usepackage{verse, gmverse}

in the preamble and some other features. The path to markdown files, chapter names and other options can be configured in the verse.conf file. The verse.conf file is read by mkverse.sh`.

---

mkverse.sh

The mkverse.sh script creates a PDF file out of several easy markdown files. Some options need to be set in vers.conf file. A single configuration file can be given to mkverse.sh to use instead of verse.conf.

cp verse.conf quaderno.conf
./mkverse.sh quaderno.conf

md2parallel.sh

pdf2book.py

This script takes a pdf and reorders pages for printing signatures. The number of pages per signature can be varied Dependency: pypdf

  • Please analyze the following parallel text and create a detailed bilingual word pair list. Ensure that every significant word or phrase from the original language is included, even common connectors or conjunctions. Additionally, provide multiple English translations for each entry where applicable and order the list alphabetically (where ɛ comes after e and ɔ comes after o). Here's the text: [insert text].
