There's a unicode based word processor out called Global Writer 98
Professional which supports over 100 languages, including right to left
scripts, etc. It lists for only $46.95, so should be able to get it on the
street for less. Its advertised as "used by Voice of America and Radio Free
Asia", so should be right up your alley! (I think our bookselling division
sells it for $39, but that's not my department, so call if you're
interested). I've not used the software, so have no idea how good it is.
