Re: [Dev-C++] Multi-language application

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

It was probably 8 years since I did a japanese application. Then, I didn't
have to do anything special. When editing the dialog resources, it was
enough to specify if things should be displayed right-to-left. Most
probably there should be similar methods for hebrew or arabic.

Why are you trying to change the font? Just use the default font - the OS
knows what font to use on an arabic or hebrew machine.
