Subject:Response to Arabic and Mac OSX.2 article

Apple was already way ahead in the Arabic and the academic markets
years ago, but proprietary policy and the abundance of PC shareware, in
addition to Microsoft's not issuing Word and Excel/Office in Arabic,
undid all that. We former Mac users wish them well, but remain to be
convinced. Is there a system-wide tool, for example, that allows the
use of more than two keys to set up a macro (i.e., not dependent on
Word or other word processor)?
