In recent QT versions there's a class (QLocale) that is supposed to display digits (Arabic or Hindi) following the locale and uses them in the 'mathematical' way. I suppose that most (all?) KDE apps need to be compiled with recent QTs (and I guess they will need to be patched a little). But the needed tools are definitely there. For apps made with something other than QT (GTK/Pango among others ?!), I don't know. But Behdad said that such functionality is not present and there is a serious development need (I guess the functionality won't be there for tomorrow...). Salam, - -- Youcef R.
