Right, although this is now a long time ago, I recall I gave some lisp implementation a try in which a visual method was used. Even Ehud version (which was by far the best around) did not do line breaking very well. I tried to set up my own and did not succeed in anything really usable, so I am not sure whether it is that easy at it least not at the lisp level. May be if it is done correctly on the C level it is different. _______________________________________________ emacs-bidi mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-bidi
