Subject: Wants to hear Jaguar experiences

Dear Arabic-L'ers,
For those who are using Jaguar, I'd love to hear which applications
handle Arabic text appropriately.
iconv -- mentioned in my last message, needs to be downloaded and
compiled from the GNU sources. If anyone has found a binary, it'd be
good to know.
Cheers,
Dan.

Subject:OS X Jaguar Keyboard Layout

I examined the *.keylayout files contained in

	/System/Library/Keyboard Layouts/Unicode.bundle

and created an Arabic QWERTY keyboard layout file, which is available as

<http://quinon.com/files/keylayouts/ArabicQWERTY_X.sit>

Try it at your own risk ;-)

By the way New Chinese Fonts STHeiti and other ST* contain a certain
number of Arabic characters not found in other fonts.
