assalaamu `alaykum It would certainly be helpful to put it on the CVS servers and also I'd like to put the OpenEmbedded font package somewhere too (easily ftp-able). Can anyone suggest a simple GPL arabic shaping library in C/C++ to save me coding up YAASL (Yet Another Arabic Shaping Library). The simpler the better (as long as it works). I found the postgresql one which is OK but has extra UTF8 decoding gubbins and has pgsql-orientated data types. I just want the shaping and nothing but the shaping, preferably using a 'string' datatype. I had a look at FriBidi for the bidi side and it seems to do an awful lot of things that I would have thought would be better left in the parent application - such as mapping mouse coordinates to characters, and encoding conversions. Is there a cut-down version that just reorders unicode characters? Memory space is at a very big premium for handhelds. wassalaam abdulhaq
