I started looking into BIDI to better understand and ultimately use it.
lots of information out there.
I was a bit discouraged to find that BIDI algorithm, by the Unicode
Consrotium, to have some problems supporting Arabic.
I would appreciate some feedback as to the status of Fribidi complete
support for the Arabic language.
If there are issues still, we should definitely look into resolving them
not to mention offer a proper shaping library to go with the Fribidi lib.
Thanks
