In hope of not making an ass of myself... Isn't the conversion of UTF-16 into UTF-8 a straightforward one? Why can't the Wine code convert the strings into UTF-8 just before calling Fribidi, instead of Fribidi having to contain that code? By the way, I'm curious: Does Windows actually support UTF-16, or just UCS-2 (i.e., only the first 65536 characters of Unicode)? P.S. The signature on the bottom was randomly chosen.
