Re: Palm - Linux in Hebrew



Hi,

I'm using a Palm syncing it in to both my home Linux
box and MS2K at work. 

As in most other applications Hebrew support as much
as I know is simply not posible. I managed to see
Hebrew fonts but it's always in the wrong direction or
completely messed up.

There is a way to see and write Hebrew in some
applications like xTerma and xEmax but there are none
for "office" users (Word Perfect, Koffice, Kpalm ...)

It seams that in order for the world to stop consider
Hebrew as a bug and start consider it as a language we
need a strong "Hebrew Programmers Group" which will
sign the right contract with these big players and
start converting main stream office applications to
Hebrew.


For all the "StartUp seekers" - There's a huge
business opportunity here (Hebrew RedHat) !

If anyone is interested, I'll be thrilled to take part
in that adventure.


Have Fun

Erez
