Well, seeing as ضبط is used for at least 600 other words, I decided
against it :)
Besides that ضبط could mean practically anything. The sentence:
"How would you like these lines to be justified?" has a precise clear
meaning while the sentence:
"كيف تريد أن تضبط هذه السطور"
is confusing at best, and I certainly wouldnt guess right away that it
had anything to do with left-justification or right-justification.
