Please! Newspapers don't have truncated and continued lines, they have newlines between every two lines. With newlines, the bidi display will show exactly what you (and every other Hebrew reader) expect. > e.g. > http://www.cancer.org.il/template_site2/default.asp?textSearch=&maincat=15&catid=368&pageid=3331&innerparentId=4361 > look for "nutrition and physical" and see how the English title is > broken into 2 lines and is right justified. That's exactly what I see in bidi Emacs, when there's a newline between "cancer" and "treatment". THIS IS NOT THE USE-CASE WE ARE DISCUSSING IN THIS THREAD. That use-case works like you want. > I wish more users who uses Hebrew routinely will take part in this > discussion. And I wish they'd also step forward to help me coding. _______________________________________________ emacs-bidi mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-bidi
