What about using the Unicode editor Yudit (http://www.yudit.org) ?
This editor does not depend on either Gnome or KDE/QT libraries, only
X libraries on *nix (Windows version also available, I don't know
how it works on Windows). Numerous keyboard maps are built-in, including
several Arabic keyboards. Yudit also has RTL and LTR override keys
and many other nice features. Note that Yudit will work just fine on
*nix systems that lack i18n infrastructure, such as OpenBSD, etc.

Though I use KDE, Gedit is my preffered editor for arabic. Kate and
Kwrite are buggy. Kedit shows the text correctly but doesn't support
Gedit's features. If you want something more cross-platform you can
try yudit. It's good editor especially for Bidi texts but the UI is
not that cool.

Salaam All,
I was wondering if anyone knows an editor that works on multiplatform
(opensource preferable) that actually shows the arabic text as readable text
during editing?
somehow its a nightmare to work with encrypted text hoping it would show
correctly over the web.
Salam,
Vim works for me:
:set encoding=utf-8
:set arabic
The problem with Vim and Arabic is that it changes the direction of
the whole text to RTL when arabic option is set, I managed to live
with it...
Hope this helps.
