Greetings. We are in the process of enhancing our Windows telnet
(terminal emulation) product to support Arabic and Hebrew. If you are
interested in corresponding and testing this in conjunction with Pine, please
keep reading.

Our Product is Anzio. In its current version it can handle a wide variety of
character sets (ISO sets, Far East, various codepages). We are now tackling
bidirectional languages (Arabic and Hebrew) as well as Arabic's contextual
forms (letter reshaping). We have added user control over whether Anzio causes
Windows to reorder and reshape the text strings as they go to the screen. This
is only possible on Arabic or Hebrew versions of Windows (95/98/NT), or on
Windows 2000 (NT 5).

If you are interested in working with us on this, please reply privately.

Regards,
....Bob Rasmussen,   President,   Rasmussen Software, Inc.
