Just a clarification on the HarfBuzz.pdf document that I referenced, to answer any questions in advance.

1. Each example is given with a title (e.g., TTBHebrew) and horizontally LTR the RAW input text characters, as fed to HarfBuzz::Shaper.

2. The HarfBuzz-shaped output starts on the next line down. LTR starts near the left, RTL starts at the right margin on page 1.

3. The vertical examples (page 2) have a horizontal line with a dot in the middle, showing the alignment (starting point) of the write(s). For the "Hi There!" text (first two), 3 alignments are demonstrated: Beginning (default), Center, or End of the text falls on the starting point.

4. The HarfBuzz-shaped text has a little arrow showing where the next write would be for my library, and the direction of growth.
