This has nothing to do with which keyboard layout is selected. The
direction indicator appears when you have right-to-left text.
Also, which application are you seeing this direction indicator in?
Mac OS X uses a split cursor to indicate a direction boundary.

Hello,
I'm not sure if this is the right list for this question, but I
couldn't
find where else to ask, I hope it's ok.
Mac OS X v10.5 has this feature that when RTL keyboard layouts are
selected,
the I-beam cursor adds a 'direction indicator' that tells the user
to which
direction the cursor would move – left or right.
For example, if you switch to Arabic or Hebrew keyboard layout, the
I-beam
cursor adds two right-facing dots near the top of the beam,
indicating that
the cursor would move right. If you switch back to English, the dots
are
added left-facing.
My question is this:
How do I tell Mac to turn-on this feature on a custom keyboard
layout that I
developed?
So, when the user switches to my keyboard layout, the cursor would
start
indicating the direction, as the Arabic and Hebrew layouts.
Thanks,
-S.
