If people are having BiDi problems with the WineHQ code, it should
probably fall under my responsibility.
I would appretiate, regardless of the above, a copy of the bug list.

Hi people,
During the last few days of people using crossover office, I recieved
a couple of bug reports regarding crossover/wine and Bidi problems.
I have written an email to Jeremy White (CEO of CodeWeavers) about it
and here's his answer.
Of course - all their work on bidi stuff is going back into the WineHQ
tree, so everyone will benefit from it..
Comments?
Thanks,
Hetz

Subject: Re: Problems with Powerpoint
If you install Office 2k with LANG set to Hebrew, then it installs
it's own bidi stuff which works ok, but when it comes to
english/hebrew mixing (happends also wih arabic and farsi, but their
all using the same bidi algorithms) it gets confused (when editing,
not viewing)..
Hmm. I would really like to get this working, Hetz. If, for no
other reason than you have been very patient (and very persistent,
but I admire that grin).
Can you give me a sense of the scope of the opportunity and the
potential deal? Do you think that a few Univerisites (or companies)
could
commit to a volume deal in exchange for us making this work?
We're stretched really thin right now, and it'd be hard to ask
someone to look into this without some sense of the potential return.
Cheers,
Jer

Word:
As near as I can figure out, when you switch language (E-) Word does
not show you the change, nor does it reverse the cursor shape as it
does under native Windows. However, it functions correctly.
By the way, I installed the Language Pack from office, because I prefer
English dialogues and messages. (Hebrew popup messages always come out
with the wrong encoding - ???'s)
Explorer:
Works, but sometimes grabs 97%+ of CPU time. Cure: kill -9 pid.
Excell:
I loaded a Hebrew spread sheet. It reversed everything. Subsequent
reloading under Windows had all Hebrew strings reversed. It may be due
to my use of the Language Pack. I don't know.
