A person on the internet needs help using FarsiTeX, a bidirectional
typesetting engine for Farsi and English. It only runs on LaTeX
2.09.

If the same task were approached in Context, what would he need
to do beyond the regular Context stuff?  Are there documents he
should read? 

This is not a client, but just someone appealing for guidance.
