<quote> "...Unfortunately, Urdu is written right to left...." </quote>

let me assure you, that right-to-left writing are so in a quite fortunate way.

May be a bit unfortunate a fact that it is a bit more complicated to process in a simple hello-world program, but this is another question...

I suspect that the OP meant that it was unfortunate for him/her that Urdu is not written in the same direction that the Tk widget set works in, with no slight intended towards RTL languages.

And I'd also like to second the suggestion (below) to use a browser as the renderer. Search the monastery for links on using translation and Template::Toolkit together, and you're off to a good start.
