Installing SimpleText Arabic
SimpleText Arabic is a basic multilingual text-editing program that
supports Arabic or Persian characters, as well as all other available
writing systems. This program is not automatically installed with
your language kit. If you wish to install it, follow these steps:
1. Do one of the following:
If you have a CD-ROM drive, insert the CD Install disc into the
CD-ROM drive.
Otherwise, insert the Install 1, English floppy disk into your
floppy drive.
2. When the floppy disk or CD-ROM disc icon appears on
the screen, double-click it to open it.
3. Locate the SimpleText Arabic icon.
If you don’t see the SimpleText Arabic icon in the window,
resize the window to make it larger, or scroll the window to
see more.
4. Drag the SimpleText Arabic icon to your hard disk.
If you have more than one version of SimpleText on your
computer—for instance, SimpleText Arabic and an English
version—the wrong version may start when you try to open a
SimpleText file. Instead of opening a SimpleText file directly, first
open the version of SimpleText you want to use, then choose
Open from the File menu to open your file.
v Note: Your existing version of SimpleText will also support
Arabic and Persian text entry. SimpleText Arabic is not
required to use the Arabic Language Kit. v
Removing the Arabic Language Kit from
your system
If you wish to remove Arabic or Persian from your system, use the
Installer to remove all the files that provided the language
support.
If you have other language kits on your system, don’t worry. The
Installer will not remove any support needed for your other
languages.
To remove Arabic or Persian language support you need the
Install 1, English disk.
1. Quit any open application programs.
If you have any virus-detection software, turn it off.
v Note: It’s best to start your computer with all extensions
turned off before doing the removal. To do so, hold the Shift
key down while your computer is starting. v
