Hello,

In a brief exploration. I may look more later. But the Linux Libertine font has a reasonably nice Latin, Greek, and Hebrew and to my understanding many others, set of characters. I like them much better than the original Ariel which I used. The Ariel on Linux is not the Ariel Unicode MS. They may be nearly identical, but I don't know as I have not seen the MS font.

Thanks again.

Jimmie

Jimmy,

Use the right font, for example Ariel Unicode MS, and you'll be able to display strings in those languages just fine. Processing these strings also works just fine.

Now, editing them right-to-left is not possible.

Hello,

I briefly tried to copy/paste, read from file, some Hebrew text. I simply get some strange characters.

From a brief search of the archives. I did not find any means of doing a right to left language. I also�am not sure how to use a Hebrew font. Font issues would also apply for when I want to use Greek.

What would be needed to do right to left and use the right Hebrew font?

I believe these issues would also apply to anyone wanting Arabic or any other such languages.

The last message I can easily find is in August of 2014. Maybe Pharo isn't the right tool for this job�at the moment. But I did want to explore the potential of it being so.

Thanks for any help.
