You need to make sure that fribidi is included (ie. configured) during your mlterm compile process. You should also read this document carefully and let us know if you still have problems. http://www.arabeyes.org/download/documents/howto/arabic-howto-en/xwindows.html#XTERMINALS BTW: I start my mlterm with the following options (just FYI). $ mlterm -E utf8 --meta=esc --fontsize=20 & The monospaced font that is noted within (and this should be included in the document - Mohammed ?) can be found here, http://www.arabeyes.org/project.php?proj=Khotot http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/arabeyes/ae_fonts_mono.tar.bz2?download As for getting the "ls" command to work make sure to use a newer version of 'ls'. I'm using "GNU fileutils 3.12" and so doing a, $ ls -N or $ ls --literal works. You should see Arabic UTF-8 filenames (else they appear as question marks). Hope that helped and sorry for the delay. PS: for those on the list - do please help people when they ask; that's what the list is here for :-) Salam. - Nadim __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
