I've just committed a change to use > bidi-string-mark-left-to-right. Looks good to me (but Mohsen should tell). Btw, there's some strange problem in displaying one label of the hebrew-biblical-tiro input method: the character u+05ba (inserted by Shift-5 key) is displayed as a blank rectangle. It looks like my fonts have no glyph for this character, but then why don't we display this like any other glyphless character: as a hex code inside a small rectangle? That's what I get if I insert this character into a buffer, but somehow the way we display it in the keyboard layout (and in the "C-u C-x =" display under "decomposition") behaves differently. Why is that?
