Problem is that www.farsikde.com seems to be unreachable at the 
moment (at least from here). If this persists you may want to post the 
description as well. Meanwhile, you could try to set your keyboard to 
Hebrew (included in the Control Center) and see if this works as Meni 
Livne said. That way you can at least tell if the problem is with your 
system or with the Farsi description.

For my part, I have been unable as well to write something rtl so far. 
If I load eg an Arabic file into KBabel the cursor moves automatically 
to the right and the arrow keys work in the "wrong direction" (ie 
correctly). But even if I set the keyboard to Hebrew and enter some 
text the cursor moves from left to right again and does not enter 
Hebrew characters. 

So far I thought this to be a problem with language/keyboard settings of 
the SuSE distribution (which you also have AFAIK) but have not found 
the time and the nerve to really dig into this.

Regards,

Thomas
