As there were many cosmetic and restructuring changes in HEAD, it's not easy to adjust the code of emacs-unicode. I think it takes two or three weeks more. After that, I can start working on bidi. I'd like to incorporate your reordering routine and my display routine of emacs-bidi into the emacs-unicode branch instead of directly into HEAD to avoid another synching labor. --- Ken'ichi HANDA [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/developer
