Dear Hans,
Thank you once again for your response. I have attached a sample file showing examples of each of the matters discussed below which you requested. It was produced using LaTeX and Uwe Lück's excellent ednotes package. Of course, I couldn't produce an example of parallel texts, because to the best of my knowledge there is no robust system for that anywhere (my definition of 'robust' means it can handle RtL languages, like Arabic, as easily as ConTeXt does).
