There are places all over this application to change writing direction. Writing direction has never been the problem. Enabline CTL is the problem. To make it clearer, there would be no problem at all if every document would consist entirely either of Hebrew or of "Western". One could then forget all about CTL, and set the appropriate language by means of the system's language applet. But it is far from unusual for many people, including myself, to embed Hebrew words or phrases in "Western" text, or vice versa. One could continue to manipulate the language applet, but this becomes a drag very rapidly. Thus the provision for CTL, which, until now, I have not been able to use. > > I trust this helps. > > Brian Barker > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
