I have developed a large body of materials in Hebrew using (gasp)
Authorware, which does not support Unicode. This lack of Unicode has
been the biggest hurdle for me. When I prepare Hebrew and English
materials using web design tools or databases that do use Unicode
there has not been a problem.<br>
My solution in Authorware was to use the extended ascii addresses
for the Hebrew letters and to call a procedure that uses arrays to
"translate the character codes" and flipped the Hebrew as required.
<br>
I also wrote a simple editor and keyboard so the students can enter
their responses in Hebrew. The cursor moves from Right to Left and
the students do not type their answers SDRAWKCAB.<br>
Note: I am not a programmer.<br>
When I have to prepare textual materials in Hebrew I compose them in
a Hebrew-English word processor and save them in the appropriate
format (code sheet) and copy them into Authorware (which uses the
Hebrew fonts I had made for this purpose). <br>
<br>
There are a number of Hebrew-English word processors which also do
Arabic. Hebrew text that employs the full set of diacritics (the
vowel points), for example, poetry or Bible, is more complicated
that Arabic, which has fewer diacritics. But these issues were
solved many years ago. On the other hand, Arabic has more characters
in its set and the different shapes of each letter depend on the
position of the character in the word. But those issues have also
been managed for years.<br>
All of Microsoft Office (and Windows) has been localized for RTL but
the interface can be switched for English and then the controls
re-orient themselves.<br>
If Authorware had been supported long enough to support Unicode and
word-wrap, I would not be following the development of xerte. <br>
