helo all.
at last, i can say that PuTTY can does its own shaping, and Bidi.
Bidi is done by my Implementation of the Bidi algorithm, i have updated it to do Mirroring, and dont seem to have any bugs left. (although some might arise from mirroring). it uses a compressed table of character types. mirroring code is really really horrible, anyone care to change it.? anyway, i tested it and seem to get 100% Bidi Compliance, anyone care to correct me ?
shaping should work 100% also...
there are 2 patches in cvs, 'arabic_putty.patch' which does shaping and flipping(no BIDI). and 'putty.arabic' which does shaping and Bidi.
in cvs you'll also find my implementation of the Bidi Algorithm mentioned above, its akbidi.h and akbidi.c (bad name huh?)...
patches and akbidi are here... http://cvs.arabeyes.org/viewcvs/projects/external/putty/
the .exe is here http://www.toomuchcookies.net/~arabeyes/putty6.5.exe
some old screen shots are here http://art.arabeyes.org/external/
comments or feedback or hints or anything please...
nadim: how about another ping for Simon...
ak.
