On the other hand bidi support done by the terminal is needed too; for the output of things like "date" command and programs without any internal bidi support, or using a non-bidi-aware curses, etc. of course the result won't be the best; but it would be better than nothing at all. So, the terminal must have bidi done by itself; but with the ability to inhibit it (after a given sequence for example) so a bidi-aware curses could send that sequence and do the bidi treatment itself. Now the question is, are there any defined escape sequence to activate/unactivate bidi support or not ? -- Ki �a vos v�ye b�n, Pablo Saratxaga http://www.srtxg.easynet.be/ PGP Key available, key ID: 0x8F0E4975 _______________________________________________ I18n mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/i18n
