Hello Lipikar users
Lipikar already has right-to-left scripting support built into it - just right-click on the TextBoard and select that option for it to be activated.
The right-click context menu for Lipikar will appear ONLY when you have the optional right-to-left support installed in Windows XP.
If you aren't sure, follow this path (Control Panel - Regional and Language Options - Language (tab) - Supplemental Language Support) and see if the option "Install files for complex script..." is checked.
If not, check it - and all will be well.
If Lipikar's r-to-l context menu does not appear even if you already have this checked, then please use the feedback form on the Lipikar site with all the hardware and software details - I will try to have a look.
Thanks for using Lipikar - glad you all found it useful!

Great utility! Very helpful when you have to write a couple of old Greek lines in an English text or a sentence in Sütterlin in a German essay. Quite Easy to use as well, except for languages written from right to left (Hebrew, Arabic,...): the only way I found was to right-align the text and write the sentences backwards! A rather tedious way, or is there another possibility I overlooked?
