Abstract
For pt.I see ibid., p.168-71. Discusses the `adaptation problems´ caused when native English word processing systems are adapted to other languages, in particular Hebrew (or Arabic) in which one writes from right to left. An additional topic discussed is the problem one faces when English text (sentences or just several words) is to be introduced in the primary (Hebrew) text
