The Hebrew Support for X-Windows & Motif, is a product of El-Mar
Software, which adds Hebrew functionality to many of the parts and layers of
X-Windows and Motif, including Xlib, all of the widgets of Motif, hterm
(Hebrew xterm), demos and simple useful applications (e.g. bi-lingual
Motif-based editor), fonts (including scalable Type1), keyboard-manager in
order to allow Hebrew and push-mode for non-Motif applications, etc.
Despite allowing many new features and variations for Motif widgets, the
support doesn't have any modification to internal data-structures of Motif, so
existing applications which were compiled and linked under non-Hebrew
environment and libraries, can be relinked (without compilation!) and run
with Hebrew (you can replace shared-libraries, so even the relink is not
needed!)
By using another tool of us, Motif/Xplorer, you can take commercial
applications (without their source) and translate them to Hebrew. This was
the way of giving Hebrew support for Oracle Forms 4, Intellicorp's Kappa and
OMW, CA-Unicenter, and many other leading UNIX tools sold in Israel. This
product was purchased and adopted by most of the workstation vendors (9 of
them, including the biggest: Sun, HP, SGI), and many other software houses.
There are Makefiles for more than 30 platforms and operating systems.
We believe only in open software, so all the customers get the compelete
source code. We have good relations with the leading forces in this industry,
including the technical staff of X-Consortium and the technical staff of
COSE.
