Hi Ulrike
This is exactly what parsitex does; you never need to use a lot of code but all you need is built inside the engine. The parsitex takes the TeX--XeT model as a starting point but extends it considerably. ________________________________ From: XeTeX <xetex-boun...@tug.org> on behalf of Ulrike Fischer <ne...@nililand.de> Sent: Wednesday, November 23, 2016 2:11:22 AM To: xetex@tug.org Subject: Re: [XeTeX] Are the new etex changes reflected in XeTeX?

Well as far as I can see the TeX-Xet and TeX--XeT models always put the parindent box on the *left*. This means this models starts from left-to-right as the "normal direction" and adds right-to-left as additional feature on top. From the historical development this is understandable. But if I were part of a right-to-left writing culture I would prefer a model which tries to handle both directions in the same way and where writing a right-to-left text doesn't involve tons of codes and \everypar juggling. -- Ulrike Fischer http://www.troubleshooting-tex.de/ -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
