Oh well, just compiled the 1.3.10 developer version. It compiles only against gtk2, and works almost perfect with unicode hebrew, eventhough I couldn't get it to render stylish designer ttf hebrew fonts for some reason. But it accepts the standard ttf's copied form windows ;)
Anyway, it's really neat and pretty stable, lots of imporvements. It builds along side 1.2.x gimp and lets you keep the stable one running as usual, so you should check it out. > -----Original Message----- > From: Meir Kriheli [mailto:meir@;mksoft.co.il] > Sent: Sunday, November 10, 2002 5:45 PM > To: Linux IL > Subject: Re: Bidi support in Gtk > > > On Sunday 10 November 2002 12:11, Dvir Volk wrote: > > Which reminds me - > > > > I'm using Gimp on RH8.0, and for some reason I can't seem > to be able > > to write hebrew in it.
