Yes. I will make the necessary changes, probably next week, to drop the private copy in biditype.h and use the tables from uni-bidi.el via the APIs defined on chartab.c. > This is immediately relevant if we want to change some C code to be bidi > aware, like generate-new-buffer-name. Should such code use the internal > tables, or uni-*.el? It should use the uniprop tables, as described in the commentary before uniprop_table_uncompress (in chartab.c). Those tables are populated by loading uni-*.el as needed.
