Hebrew Lynx: How much Hebrew and how much Lynx ?




Hello,

  I know that many .ac.il sites and some ISPs run Hebrew Lynx, and that it
must be here somewhere. Where ? Is it a PD job or not and does it run on
Linux ?

  Normal Lynx run on a machine with Hebrew console/xterm fonts will show
Hebrew but only physical Hebrew (not logical, that is sdrawkcab). Also,
any Hebrew buttons and text/menu drops in a page have the text spelled
backwards. Don't ask. 

  So, maybe I could play with the BiDi algorythm and put it in the Lynx
source and see what happens, if there is no true Hebrew Lynx.

  One more thing: That button text thing is a pest. imho an algorythm must
be developed to vote for the right direction based on a few well-known
words.  Am I way wrong ? 

tia,

	Peter
