Hi, I can confirm that the bug is related to the environment variable, and especially the ones that relate to the locale settings. I couldn't solve the problem with only unsetting the LANG but I solved it when I unset all the locale related variables. As this is not a nice solution I will try to find out exactly which enviroment variable is faulty, and report back.

What had been strange was that I (dov) was not seeing this problem, while Guy was, and we couldn't figure out why. I've finally been able to reconstruct this problem with: setenv LANG he_IL In other words, when LANG is *not* set, then the words are not reversed, but when it is set, then the words are reversed. So Guy --- try to unset this variable (and maybe also LANGAUGE, if it's set?) and see if that helps. Note, however, that it is important that we be able to have the variable set -- when it's not set, the menus do not display hebrew correctly... So the solution should be local to the painting, not just getting rid of this environment variable.
