Subject: bug#6998: 24.0.50; bidi: lines starting with neutral types have the wrong base direction?
Date: Sat, 11 Sep 2010 01:29:44 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19594.45400.927788.599350@zemblan.newkuwait.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <19591.19370.918828.700534@zemblan.newkuwait.org>

I did some testing, and I found out that the differences between Emacs
and other apps (fribidi, gedit, kwrite, etc) are explained by the other
apps' use of "line-based reordering", while Emacs uses
"paragraph-based reordering" (perhaps to avoid filled paragraphs
having more than one direction). So I guess this is not a bug per se.

However, I still see inconsistent rendering of the second example
given above. But I'll file a more specific bug for that.

Closing.
