Hi Guys, and Chag Same'ach,

Haven't posted here in a while... Good to be back :)

I've recently switched to mutt, and still got some bidi issues unresolved.
As I was sure this subject came up here previously, I googled a bit, and found 
this thread http://mirror.hamakor.org.il/archives/linux-il/10-2004/12174.html.

In short, it suggests using 'set display_filter=bidiv' for viewing Hebrew. It 
works smoothly.

Still, 7 years after, I bet that some things have changed. I summed up my 
current questions on working with mutt and Hebrew:

Reading mail
------------
1. bidiv solution seems cool, but isn't it time for real integration of fribidi 
in mutt? Did anybody recently try and failed? Is the author known for his 
anti-bidi beliefs?

Composing (i.e. bidi support in the editor)
-------------------------------------------
2. Any vim solution?
3. Any recommended bidi-aware editor that plays nice with mutt?
4. For now I'm manually adding RLE special character before each 
Hebrew-containing line and it does the trick, partially. RLM didn't seem to 
work. Is it a reasonable thing to do? A smart trick to automate this in vim?
