I think that based on the reply tzafrir sent, although i am not familiar with the development and maintainance of the X libraries, is to start an orginized pressure on the X libraries development organization to arrange their code to allow for left to right languages support, or at least to concentrate all the problemtic code in one place. What do you think? can it be done? * - * - * Tzahi Fadida [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fax (+1 Outside the US) 240-597-3213 * - * - * - * - * - * -----Original Message----- From: Tzafrir Cohen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, July 22, 2001 7:19 PM To: Tzahi Fadida Cc: Haifa Linux Club Subject: RE: Shlomif's R2L version 0.2.0 On Sun, 22 Jul 2001, Pol Muaddib wrote: > Hi, i have a newbie question. > If i understand correctly, the hebrew support mechanisms which the biditext > change when running are in the Xlib.

You are right that rebuilding the X libraries is the Right Thing to do in this case. However, it is much more complecated. And it is certainly not feasable to make a binary distribution of it (we'll have to maintain too many seperate versions) > * - * - * > Tzahi Fadida > [EMAIL PROTECTED] What exactly is your email? -- Tzafrir Cohen mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir
