The HKL is the type of keyboard (Handle to Keyboard Layout) and IME is Input Method 
Editor.

The HKL exist on Win95/98/NT, but NT can't select layout per application only for the 
system.

IME on the other hand is hard for us with non Asian-Windows, but in some time I will 
upgrade to Win2k and then I will be able to try it.

I supose there is a IME for Gujarati (which country?), if there is a Windows version 
that handles it in ex. Wordpad.

My knowlage ends with 8bit charsets, so I'll need to ask alot of questions when I get 
to the IME stuf. 

How about text direction. I know hebrew and arabic starts at the right, but how about 
asian languages?
