Hello,
 
I am a student at Purdue in my fourth semester of Hebrew.  I am also interested
in a text editor that goes from right to left.  I found some thing made in 1986
called MacInHebrew which was supposed to allow Macwrite to be a Hebrew text
Editor.  I got it from  cc.sfu.ca .  If you would like to look at it you can
ftp it from there by doing the following.
cd PC2
get
DA/MACHEBREW
(local name)
 
It does like just "get DA/MACHEBREW" because it tries to put it in a directory 
DA.  There also two other files that go with it in DO/MACHEBREW and FO/MACHEBREW
as you can probably tell are documentation and fonts for this da.  I tried half-
heartedly to try it, but I don't have enough time to really get into it.  It was
designed by someone at the Hillel foundation at MIT.  Like I said, it was made 
in 1986, so the current operation system might not run it correctly.  The      
documentation is 50 pages long.  So if you get it and get it running please
tell me how you did it.  If you can not ftp from there, I will send it to you. 
Also, you might see if there is a new version out there.

I would appreciate you opinions on this,

Shalom,
