I have installed Emacs for Windows (GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1
(i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2011-09-19) from the alpha directory (Sept.
2011 version). With very few exceptions (Burmese, Oriya, half-width
kana), I can see all text, bidi-display-reordering is t by default, and
bidi reordering works at least for the שלום and السّلام عليكم examples in
the "Show Multi-lingual Text" page.
I have also compiled Emacs on Cygwin (GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1
(i686-pc-cygwin, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) of 2011-09-24) from bzr.
I have followed the instructions in the INSTALL file, including the
additions for complex layout, and the intlfonts. Again,
bidi-display-reordering is t by default, and I get שלום correctly, but
otherwise, not too many fonts are working, I get a lot of boxes with
four hex characters, in particular also for Arabic. Any advice?
Regards, Martin.
