This directory holds a stripped down version of GNU FriBidi library. The fribidi version that fribidi.patch is against is 0.10.7 release. The files fribidi_config.h and Makefile.am are specifically written for Pango integration. Like Pango, FriBidi is licensed under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License - see the file COPYING in the toplevel directory of the Pango distribution. The fribidi_tab_char_type_2.i table corresponds to Unicode 4.1. Please try not to make any changes to files duplicated in this directory. The aim has been to only remove lines from those files, not add new ones. Most of desired features can be implemented by preprocessor tricks in fribidi_config.h. This version of FriBidi is modified to support UTF-8 directly. Search for utf8 in the code to see where changes have gone. It also has been modified to short-circuit on unidirectional text. Search for unidirectional to find that part. November 09, 2005 Behdad Esfahbod
