Mr. Ahmad,
thanks alot for helping.. sure 2 heads will think better than one :) ....
there is one thing that i have to point; the code in the CVS is old and 
changed i mean it was an expiermintal thing that Mr. Kamal did more than  a 
year back.. so may be u need to get the original code from the putty web 
site which is listed in the putty's notes.

i am not sure if u read that latest objectives which were set based on the 
weeting with Mr. Simon (putty's author); btw u can find these notes in the 
developer's archives, Mr. Nadim explianed them neatly so please take a look 
at them if u haven't yet,

now we need to stop windows from doing shaping to the letters, why , well 
one of the reasons is that becuz putty is going to be multi-platform 
application and in order to do so it has to take care of shaping itself 
instead of relaying on windows to do so. NOW HOW, well as u might have found 
in the archives i am trying to do so (in the window.c) using a wrapping 
function, so far i am not able to do so .. there is something that may be 
will work and i will work on tonight.. take a look at the code in the 
window.c file we need to call the wrappiong function instead of calling 
ExtTextOut() directly.

BTW can u come online to #arabeyes, it will make life easier to talk to u 
online.
thanks again and looking forward to work with u

Sincerely,
Musab Basil Al Rawi
