OSX does not yet support right to left languages. There is a program
(Mallel) that allows r2l Hebrew but it is through some action of theirs and
not OS based (as it was in OS9). This is the only reason I still use Classic
is for the ability to work properly in Hebrew/Aramaic.

Apple has told me that r2l languages are the number one request (and I
assume priority) in terms of language implementation for OSX. I heard a
rumor that it was due this summer/fall, but that was just a rumor. Anyone
want to put me on a beta to help Apple/MS out with this? ;-)
