Re: Hebrew language teaching program
Hi! Check out the CrossoverOffice site, www.codewavers.com. Beware that it may only be a partial solution. Download the trial, and install it manually in a session with LANG=he_Il set, all the way. You might just get lucky. They have a discussion forum that may be useful and for a small fee they do offer pretty reasonable support, where you may be able to get help for your specfic app. DAF (P.S. I use it to run MS Office stuff; beyond that I have no interest in CodeWeavers.) twoflatfish wrote: Hello all, I'm writing from Victoria Canada in the hope that some Israelii local knowledge applied to my problem will help.

Re: Hebrew language teaching program
Try running wine with LC_CTYPE=he_IL.ISO-8859-8. It works for me here (though tested long time ago). twoflatfish wrote: Hello all, I'm writing from Victoria Canada in the hope that some Israelii local knowledge applied to my problem will help.
