Hi all, Well, I see absolutely no reason not to check it in CVS as soon as possible. Thanks Mr Alkarouri the replaced code looks fine. Random things: * I propose to use the name as "BiCon" in text and "bicon" in filenames. * FriBidi is written this way. To be fixed in readme files. * HISTORY and some more files need lines to be wrapped. * The Readme.License says that there is BSD licensed code. File can be removed to be later replaced by something like LICENSE. * On naming: fjoining can become simply joining, or bicon_joining. Same for fconsole. * bjoin.c does not sound good to me. Something like bicon_read.c would be good enough. The idea is to remove this fcon, acon, bcon thing ;). * While it makes cleanly, 'make distcheck' fails. Don't know why. * in configure.ac, package is still named 'farsi'. And also, 'make dist' makes a tarball for you Mr Alkarouri :). * I just run bicon in my gnome terminal and the output is fine. Just that it ruins a ZWNJ character. I would figure it out later. * Over time we should port the fucntionality of 'farsi' to bicon. I mean the options, etc. * Is arab.kmap.gz simply a copy of Persian layout for now? If not please put your name. I don't think I have designed an Arabic layout yet ;). * Well, on a second thought, better we rename bicon.c to something like bicon_shell.c or like that. I mean, we should reserve the main 'bicon' name for the thing (shell script / whatever) that loads font/keymap/.. and finally runs the filter. Don't know. suggestions please. Again, let's check in to CVS so we can all work there. behdad _______________________________________________ Developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/developer
