Do you know of any tools facilitating that? There exist a few CATs, or Computer Aided Translation systems, but - AFAIK - they are all proprietary and closed source. Emacs seems capable of implementing at least a simple CAT, but I could not find any existing solutions for that. (I skimmed through the answers here: https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/a35bs2/emacs_for_translations/, but did not find anything useful.) The first thing I would need is a way to highlight the "currently translated sentence" in the other window, where I would keep the original text, with an easy way to highlight the next/previous one - this seems very easy to do, but did anyone actually code anything like this?
