Hi,
I found why Emacs shows ZWNJ with space.
Emacs on GNU/Linux renders ZWNJ (unless it is absorbed by a rendering
engine) with a glyph defined in a font. As Vazir Code (and Dejavu Sans)
defines a spacing glyph for ZWNJ, Emacs displays a space. As Courier New
defines a vertical bar glyph for ZWNJ, Emacs displays a vertivcal bar.
And as Freeserif defines a zero-width glyph, Emacs displays a 1-dot
width space.
So, please try this:
At first, load the attached code to tell Emacs that a glyph of ZWNJ have
1-dot width.
Then, tell Emacs to use the same font for Arabic and ZWNJ as this;
(let ((spec (font-spec :family "Vazir Code")))
(set-fontset-font nil 'arabic spec)
(set-fontset-font nil #x200c spec))
One problem with this solution is that if a font has some actual glyph
(e.g. vertical bar as Courier New), that bar is anyway displayed.
