I don't know any language other than English, much less one written
right-to-left, but a quick search shows that the RGtk2 package includes
some support for such things.
My gut reaction is that right-to-left support would be highly device
dependent, and since devices often interact closely with the OS, that
support could well be affected by choice of and configuration of OS.
I recommend that your keep your mind open, and when someone indicates that
your example works for them and shows OS/R version information to go along
with that result (as recommended in the posting guide), you probably
should respond with similar information since it appears to be relevant.

Hi Duncan,
Thank you for your reply.
I am also using Win 7.
And I would be surprised if this would be different in any OS.
I guess the answer is that there is no way for making text in a graph in R
be "right-to-left".
Thanks again, and happy new year,
Tal

Hello all,
The following line of code includes a right-to-left language text, yet the
R graphics engine displays it from left to right. One problem this causes
is when there are parenthesis in the test, here is a basic example?
plot(1:10, main = "??????? (????????)")
Is there a way to make sure the text is displayed from right to left?
Many thanks for any suggestions,
Tal
