I am studying Hebrew, and would like to be able to use my computer, but can't figure out how to make it write from right to left. I know there's software for the Hebrew alphabet, but that still reads like the Roman alphabet.
I know there are Hebrew keyboards, even at least one that has both Roman and Hebrew letters on the keys, but how would one use this to write words in the appropriate direction?
Any helpful suggestions?

Word processing right to left
Thanks, contrex. I've printed out the instructions and will see what I can do.
I assume that I'll be able to switch back and forth from English to Hebrew fairly easily?

Search me, sport, I just found it via Google. I do use the Language Bar to switch between Spanish, French and English and I can switch easily enough, so I would think the answer is "yes", but maybe an Arabic or Hebrew user can tell us?
