I agree with Isam. Karim, I don't think what you are suggesting is really needed. If you have the intention on paying more attention to harakat, look at the bugs isam lists below and start addressing one of them (not necessarily to fix it yourself, but to find out as much about the bug as possible to push developers to do that which is needed to remedy the issue(s)). > the problem with Harakat is not Input: > - Pango/GTK Layout for Words with Harakat is wrong, little spaces under > the Haraka is shown instead of having it written over the previous letter. > - Mozilla Harakat Layout is wrong (same as above) > - Open Office Layout for the Harakat is wrong (Same as above) > - Text search with/without Harakat gives wrong results, for example if a > page contain the word (?????) then searching for (???) will not give the > desired result.

In passing, I remember seeing a variety of Java virtual keyboards out there that will work as you describe (google for 'virtual arabic keyboard'). <offtopic> I found this in passing that looked interesting, http://rabtpad.sourceforge.net </offtopic> As noted, your time and effort is needed in solving the above problems not creating applications that have very limited usage and already exist to a large extent.
