Word Processing- English to Arabic

["Julie Devall" <krena_li_mara at hotmail dot com>]

Salaam Y'all,

I really appreciate the English because I'm a beginning Arabic student. ;)

I am probably asking an elementary question, but my Arabic teacher is trying 
to put together a grammar (probably using MS Word) and he is having trouble 
formatting it from Arabic nouns on one side of a page to the English gloss 
on the other side, but I thought that the Linux gurus could recommend some 
non-MS product for which this might be easier...

I appreciate any help you tech guru's can supply.  (I am also a newbie to 
Linux, and am using a Knoppix CD until I can understand enough to use a 
Linux dedicated machine, so I'm still a GUI dependent).

all the best,

Julie :)
