I have only theoretical knowledge of right-to-left language
issues. Probably there are problems that will not be discovered
until someone wants to use an RTL language with PSPP and reports
bugs.
I read a paper by Knuth once that simulated right-to-left English
using English letters that were flipped across a vertical axis.
If such a font were available (probably it is, somewhere), it
could be used for testing.
