Updates

2001-07-22 Thread Orr Dunkelman

HI everyone, got back.

1) R2L - I put all the new R2L versions on the website
(http://linuxclub.il.eu.org/R2L/) according the programmer (as this is
equivalent to writeing a whole description what the package inside does).

Emil's refreshd is in his seperate directory.

2) New lecture schedule... on-line.
as things are quite dynamic (and that's good):
6/8 - R2L discussion
13/8 - GIMP 2
27/8 - ADSL

See ya

A more experienced programmer does not make less bugs. He just realizes
what went wrong more quickly.

 If i understand correctly, the hebrew support mechanisms which the biditext

You are right that rebuilding the X libraries is the Right Thing to do in
this case. However, it is much more complecated. And it is certainly not
feasable to make a binary distribution of it (we'll have to maintain too
many seperate versions)

RE: Shlomif's R2L version 0.2.0

2001-07-22 Thread Pol Muaddib

I think that based on the reply tzafrir sent, although i am not familiar
with the development and maintainance of the X libraries, is to start an
orginized pressure on the X libraries development organization to arrange
their code to allow for left to right languages support, or at least to
concentrate all the problemtic code in one place.
What do you think? can it be done?
