Considering GSoC application (Maltese-Arabic pair)[edit]



First pitfalls
I still remember bugs in my first 2 programs, they were rather strange: no segfaults, nothing you would expect. Only GUI-s were completely messed up. The code looked all right - because it was ok. It took me ages to discover that I had confused right and left.

Apparently I don't change. I've started working on mt-ar, but got stuck. It looked as if generation of generators (autogens) didn't work properly, which was rather unlikely... And again, it took me some time to realize I was cleverly trying to generate Arabic with my Maltese generator.

Luckily after this discovery things started to work.
