Hi I want to have a light-wight desktop that is hebrew-enabled.
Light-weight: fits a 486 or Pentium system with 16-32 MB of memory Hebrew-Enabled: Any widget on the screen that displays hebrew text will dislpay it properly. This means that if a window title contains Hebrew (e.g: from a browser) it will be displayed in logical Hebrew. It probably means that the window manager should be written with gtk 2.0 or QT3. There are some light-wieght desktops written in GTK and practically none written in QT. The only dekstop I can currently think of is XFCE. I don't know when it will be ported to gtk2. Note: I can think of a very simple modification to biditext that will allow it to be used with most window managers (unset LD_PRELOAD at biditext init time, hopefully this will happen before any children were spawned, thus no child process of the window manager will inherit the value of LD_PRELOAD and will load biditext.so), but I'm not sure if this will hebrew-enable all window managers.
