I only tried the Hebrew set.)<br>

By "app" I mean a python script that prints questions to stdout, reads<br>
answers from stdin, and displays images by invoking display(1) [a<br>
minimal image viewer from imagemagick]. It doesn't have a GUI (beyond<br>
the image displayer) since my target audience didn't need one.<br>

I can't release it as-is because $LEGAL_REASONS, but I could clean it up<br>
to make it releaseable. Before I spend too much time on that, is that<br>
something anybody would be interested in?<br>

P.S. It wasn't fun to get Hebrew to print correctly on all terminals:<br>
there are differently-behaving terminals that use the same value of<br>
$TERM (undermining terminfo-based solutions). I ended up using<br>
$WINDOWID to get the terminal emulator's argv[0], and hardcoding<br>
exceptions based on that. That's so 1990...<br>
