In the Iranain (ir) and the Syriac (syr) layouts in the CVS shift+9
produces a "rightparen". In the Isreli (il) and Arabic (ar) the same key
produces "leftparen". On my keyboard, like in most keyboards, I have a
left paren printed above the '9'.
The double quotes here around "rightparen" and "leftparen" are because the
correct name is 'parens open' for "leftparen" and 'parens close' for
"rightparen". Chances are that when one of the above layouts is "active",
the application recieving the parens will be a bidi-supporting program,
and that in most cases the paren-opener will be displayed as a a left
paren.
Thus I figure that the il and ar layouts should be fixed. Note that this
also applies to braces and brackets. Something in the lines of:
key <AE09> {[ 9 , parenright ] };
key <AE10> {[ 0 , parenleft ] };
key <AD11> {[ bracketright, braceright ] };
key <AD12> {[ bracketleft, braceleft ] };
