Hello, I wanted to report that there is a problem when writing Arabic (and, supposedly, other right-to-left scripts). I use Pidgin 2.9.0 on Windows Vista and 7. Here is the description of the problem: In order to use some diacritical marks or combine certain characters in writing Arabic, I ordinarily use "dead keys", in the same way you write, in the Latin script "é", for example, i.d. you insert the (at first unvisible) accent sign, after which you enter the vowel. The accent is a dead key, it does not show at once, "waiting" to be combined with the following letter. Wanting to write أ(alif+hamza), for instance, I proceed in the exact same way: I enter the hamza like an accent - still invisible -, and then I press the alif-key. This does work in every program I use except in Pidgin. By the way, copying the combined character from another program to Pidgin works. Only the writing itself in the chat window is flawed.
I hope you can find an easy solution. Thank you very much, Huschmand Shater
