That version has no R2L support as far as I can see. Which version has it? A snapshot version? - Could the hebrew text be saved as UTF8 (I would need that urgently) - I remember having seen some emacs branch which had even nikud support, but I forgot where, could somebody please give me pointer. (Not sure whether that could be saved as UTF8) Regards Uwe Brauer PS I sent that mail to emacs.bidi, however it seems not to appear, is that list dead?
