reverse font, not inverse, can it be done?

this will likely sound very weird, but in my current Mod project I want to use the MX6 I bought with a prism.

The downside is the prism I intend to use, reverse the text left to right.

Any other prism arrangement gets too big (like a periscope) or requires very precise multiple angle grinding (like a Pentaprism).

Is it possible to somehow tell the MO that all the characters should be reversed left to right?

I don't really want to get into drawing out an entire custom list, which would have to include data...but some way to reverse the entire line, pixel by pixel seems like it would be easier overall...

Any help appreciated.

I'm not 100% sure what you are talking about. Can you give me a visual example?

A would be the same, left to right, but not S or R, or L, they would be backwards left to right.

I guess mirrored font would be more accurate. The letter order is preserved, but the left-right orientation is reversed.

I will try to get a picture of the visual error in action. Prisms act differently than mirrors.

Edit 1/10/06: given my due date (PDXLAN 6.06, Feb 17th), I don't think I will have time to work this out.

But thanks for being here and willing to try. Maybe a later "techY" mod.
