Please see start.txt that is attached with this email. I think debian doesn't allow running "loadkeys" for normal users, look at bicon script, it'll give you an idea about what it is trying to do. I usually use my distro's admin tools to set and Arabic capable terminal font and keymap, then run bicon.bin directly.

I failed to get vim to show Arabicx properly with any terminal exept mlterm, Arabic is missed in either BiCon or putty's terminal. > 6.

I think this is more an elinks issue, try this in gnome-terminal without BiCon. -- Khaled _______________________________________________ Developer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/developer
