Hi, When I was a kid, I used a word processor called Qtext on my dos machine. It was a freeware written by an Israeli guy, and had a better (by far) bidi support than any alternative I knew.
Yesterday, I discovered that I work with the guy who wrote it in the same room. He told me that Qtext still exists, it is no longer a freeware (it belongs to his kibutz) and that it still has the best bidi support (they have only a window$ version). He also told me that the developement of Qtext has stopped, since people seem to prefer M$ word (apparently for the same obscure reasons they prefer other M$ software :). Anyway, he told me that they might be willing to sell the source. Since they ceased developing it, I guess the price won't be very high, and if it is possible to port it to linux, this might be the best bidi word processor we have (it also supports Arabic and nikud). My question is, is there someone who might want to fund it?
