yes, the binaries are ok. thank you for uploading them. i'm using them once in a while. However, they present the same functionality as my old binaries. What i was looking for, specifically, was the ability to convert an HTML file from VISUAL hebrew to LOGICAL hebrew. indeed, each word in itself is converted well in fribidi. but as a whole, the sections of a sentence with html code should also change their order. e.g. (visual hebrew: very old style, seen well only with specific encoding, browser and backword fonts) zyx onml <html code> gfe dcba (after fribidi, as seen when ordered properly with <body DIR="LTR">. each section now looks good, but the sections are not in the right order) lmno xyz <html code> abcd efg (actually should've been: both text AND sections should be in this order) abcd efg <html code> lmno xyz in the last scenario, the OS/GUI toolkits knows to display it right, while on disk the text is saved letter by letter as they exist *logically *) so what i was hoping to find is a routine that will re-order the *sections of a sentence*. the logical hebrew's sentences are being broken with - HTML tags, - english text - numbers - certain punctuation characters So far i'm found a workaround to my specific task. And there are very few websites which are still written that way, I don't think there's a point in implementing this feature, if it doesn't exist yet.
