I'm getting ready to do a Emacs tutorial now.

I just retried anjuta. I can get it to compile programs (yay),
however, the display looks like this:
http://dotancohen.com/anjuta.png

Note the reversed parentesis and brackets. I believe this is due to m
Hebrew locale. So in user.properties I uncommented the last line of
this block (as per instructions):
#~ # Internationalisation
#~ # Japanese input code page 932 and ShiftJIS character set 128
#~ #code.page=932
#~ #character.set=128
#~ # Unicode
#~ #code.page=65001
#~ code.page=0
#~ #character.set=204
#~ # Required for Unicode to work on GTK+:
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8

I even tried adding:
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
but that didn't help, either.

Thanks, I'm trying them one by one.
