Hungarian keyboard layouts defined as for monodirectional left to right
writing language. Now, in the UNICODE 8.0 standard, Central European
section is accepted Old Hungarian right to left fonts. When Hungary was the
one of the countries of the  "Eastern block", in Hungary was not allowed
widely use the Old Hungarian script, called "Rovásírás". There are a lots
of e-books on the Hungarian national library's homepage (Országos Széchenyi
Könyvtár -http:\\ek.oszk.hu ) written with "Pre-Released" Old Hungarian
font but it uncompatible with Unicode standards, and have conflicts with
the most of e-book hardwares. The main problem, that the our Traditional
script named Old Hungarian does not go throw all standardization steps in
the full electrical acceptation. There is another poblem, that writing
Hungarian text with Old (traditional) Hungarian script or latin Hungarian
script is the same by that point, that the language, the country and the
cultury is the same! So the our layout  should be changed to bidi layout,
if it possible.
We don't know, on wich way will be widely accepted by opsysem and other
software developers.
