HIM Arabic plugin is on its way.

The code is available from my svn repository

* The code is UGLY. A lot of the functionality is still missing.
* No packages yet. I'll create them but my cold doesn't help much :-)
* The above screenshot is for scratchbox not for the actual device. I didn't try yet to run it on the device.
* You will also need an Arabic font. I packaged one here: ftp://foolab.org/pub/apt/pool/arabic/t/ttf-kacst/ttf-arabic-kacstbook_1.6.2+mry-1.0.1_all.deb

I know there's one provided by the browser team. It was me who did the packaging for it but I'll be providing multiple fonts soon so ttf-arabic is now a virtual package.

You get a gpg encrypted facebook wall post like this. Only problem is he used a revoked gpg key to encrypt.

Here it goes. Lighttpd, php, sqlite and drupal with sqlite support.

All compiled inside scratchbox using the beta Chinook SDK.

First post from the N810. Had to do a bit of hacking to get Arabic! can't say I'm completely happy with it in general yet.

And now, It happened!

Abiword is a Word Processor

Enchant is the spell checking library used by Abiword and many other things.

Baghdad is the Arabic spell checker I'm working on.

Mardini of OpenCraft said it once as a joke: "Don't tell me they call you 'foolab' ?!"; I guess the answer now is: They Do!

و فى ثلاثة ايام ؟
صحيح لسه بدائى و بيستخدم CPU كتير بس فى 3 ايام ؟

واحنا مستنيين من سنين ؟

صحيح "يا امة ضحكت من جهلها الامم"

Now I can say that GNU/Linux supports Arabic natively ;-)
