Hi Hussein,
Gotcha; works great! Thanks much for the quick response. Very cool,
the way you've designed the editor to work with CSS. FYI I'm working
on a stylesheet etc. for use with the TBX standard for terminology
databases. (http://www.lisa.org/tbx). Once I've got it reasonably
working I'd be happy to contribute it (under some appropriate open
source license) to your collection, if you have such a thing. A
variety of such things would probably help your marketing.
A question regarding your development plans. I'm using Mac OS X. I'm
able to write Arabic using XXE, but the cursor behavior is incorrect,
so it's pretty hard to edit. Any chance of this being fixed in the
not-too-distant future?
Thanks,
Gregg
