Converting "Arabic" numerals to "Hindi"

[Nabeel Sulieman]

Hi,

I've been looking for the past day for a way to convert numbers from  
Arabic numerals (like what we normally use) to Hindi (or is it  
Hindu?) (like the numerals used in arabic, ironically). Hopefully the  
following example will be visible:

123456 => ١٢٣٤٥

.loc doesn't handle this automatically, and I haven't found any  
information on how to implement it myself. Please help! :-)

Thanks in advance
