I've got minibidi working in qt (I got a bit bored and it turned out to be quite easy to get basic bidi working in qt).
This is qte with no bidi: http://kprayertime.sourceforge.net/zaurus2.png This is exactly the same text (i.e., no char 0x4024) with minbidi bidi and shaping built into qte (note the kasra doesn't work): http://kprayertime.sourceforge.net/zaurus3.png And this is a shot of the text editor using an arabic keymap that I prepared (it turns out that the keymap is just a very straightforward keymap): http://kprayertime.sourceforge.net/zaurus4.png The text editor is actually pretty useless for editing arabic because it doesn't know where each character is and hence you can add arabic text but editing it is not really possible. At least you can in principle read text with it. As you can see I think it's well worth ploughing on and getting minibidi working well inside qt/e 2.3. wassalaam abdulhaq _______________________________________________ Developer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/developer
