Hello Munish,

fribidi does the reordering of the characters necesarry for the correct
display of LTR and RTL languages according to the Unicode convention. If you
want to display the resulting string than you need to reorder the glyphs
accordingly. If you want to mouse input then things get even more
complicated since you need to do hit detection etc.

It would help if you would display your system. Is it embedded? What GUI do
you have? Or is the reordering for printing? Perhaps you can use gtk or at
least pango instead.

I also suggest that you continue this discussion on the fribidi mailing list
at [email protected] .

Regards,
Dov
