Hi all!
I love how Gossip has been developed so far.
I do have a problem, though...
I use Gossip to send messages in Hebrew and all my messages appear on the left-hand side (ltr instead of rtl). I understand that this is caused since gtk+ uses the first letter in a row to determine the text direction. However that produces unwanted results.
In Kopete it seems to display Hebrew messages correctly.
Is there a way of getting Hebrew (and many other rtl languages') messages to be displayed correctly in Gossip?

I'm having some problem with
I'm having some problem with gtk+ aligning text in a gtk.Entry object.
I have an gtk.Entry object, call it 'enrty'. I'm trying to send it text that I would like aligned to the right edge of the box. I have gotten it's pango.layout object (call it enrty.layout).
enrty.layout.set_text( '0.0' )
enrty.layout.set_alignment( pango.ALIGN_RIGHT )
Now the data should be right aligned. But no, it's still left aligned.
