For the verses I put this small code in the header :
\newdimen\MesraLength % each verse has two mesra'
\MesraLength=.45\hsize % one may change this to other values
\newcommand{\vers}[2]{\begin{centering}
\beginR
\hbox to \MesraLength{#1}
\hskip 1.5cm
%\hfill
\hbox to \MesraLength{#2}
\endR
\vskip 0pt\end{centering}
}
By the way, I used ArabXeTeX for writing my PhD (Télécharger la totalité de la
thèse) which contains an important arabic part, but the best way I found now to
use arabic is Polyglossia + eledmac. As texts I'm working with now are 100% in
arabic, the only remaining problem is the bibliography : Biblatex is still
without an arabic localization...
Even for a latin-based letters text, I think one doesn't need any
transcription-code anymore as one can write directly in UTF-8. The
translitteration codes of ArabTeX et ArabXeTeX were necessary when the use of
latin encoding was the only way to write translitteration letters.
Yours,
