If someone insists of having the "Reh" shape, he should use the U+066x code, while changing the glyph shape in the font. Otherwise, things will break lose. > For example, a function "persian_ispunct()" à la ANSI C "ispunct()" > would then have to include Reh as a possible punctuation character. That is a good reason why shouldn't use arbitrary things for punctuating purposes. A general Unicode ispunct() should be enough for everyone. ISO C defines an iswpunct() function to do exactly that. roozbeh _______________________________________________ PersianComputing mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/persiancomputing
