Okay here what Simon said regarding where we might need to work on bidi and 
shaping

12:55 #arabeyes: <sgt> For the shaping-before-display in the terminal 
emulator, my immediate thought is that the place to do it is inside 
do_paint(). That routine loops over every line of the screen, taking data 
out of the internal terminal structures and copying it into term->disptext. 
So it probably wants to do shaping while it does that.
12:55 #arabeyes: <sgt> (Probably right at the top of the big loop that 
iterates over each row.)

now we have 3 things that we need to look at ... Vim and u suggested, Katoob 
as Osama suggested, and of course the routine Simon mentioned to check the 
work place if we can say that... i will check Katoob and u do the same with 
Vim, i suggest that we meet on the weekend to discuss how things are done in 
both of katoob and Vim at least what we will be able to cover till the 
weekend so that we can come up with something..  what do u think ?

Now i will send an email to Simon regarding the part that's done.
