R help - Sep 2011 - openPage in the {hwriter} package - reverses Hebrew text

Hello dear R help members,

I am playing with the hwriter <http://www.ebi.ac.uk/~gpau/hwriter/>
package
in the purpose of creating HTML output in the Hebrew language.
I ran into a basic problem:
When I use the openPage command (from the {hwriter} package) the Hebrew text
I try to add to the HTML file is reversed.

# Here is a basic example of the problem:
library("hwriter")
p = openPage('test.html', dirname=getwd(),
        charset = "iso8859-8", lang = "he")
txt <- "א ב ג ד ה ו ז ח"
cat(txt, file = p)
closePage(p)


# I know that the problem is not caused by cat since using:
cat(txt, file = "temp.txt")
# Will output the Hebrew text in the correct order

Thank you for any help or suggestion,
Tal
