I think that the people reading this list are the only ones in the world who
would benefit from this program.
You how you're typing in English (or Hebrew) and then look at the screen
only to realize that you hadn't switched your keyboard? Frustrating.
I got fed up with having to retype it all, so I wrote a little application
to do it for me.
I know that there are Windows programs that will do this, but none for Linux
(that I'm aware of).
My original plan was to make an OpenOffice plugin, but I don't have the time
now to start working on that.
The program is a Java app, and will run on any platform. (I tested it on
Windows XP, a Debian derivative and a Red Hat derivative, one using Sun Java
and the other IcedTea).
I'm releasing it and its source code under the GNU GPL. Feel free to use it,
share it, improve on it, and maybe somebody out there has the time and
skills to write an OOo plugin from it.

Source code:  http://thatside.net/downloads/TextConverterSource1.1.zip

Share and enjoy!
