A value of `nil' means > the direction of each paragraph is dynamically determined by applying > the rules described in the Unicode Standard Annex 9 (UAX#9). I meant a function which does (1) set such a variable and (2) apply it to one or all windows showing a buffer. Calling this function would temporarily override any L2R/R2L specifications specified for a file, buffer, or paragraph. BTW, do UAX#9 paragraphs require new definitions for `paragraph-start' or `paragraph-separate'? martin
