Bug Description
Binary package hint: icewm
This patch is to fix this bug:
[ 1440618 ] bidi support (fribidi)
Languages such as Hebrew and Arabic are written from
right to left. Hence processing them requires "bidirectional" text rendering: the text flows in some
cases from left to right and in others: from left to right.
This patch is necessary because the letters in those languages are shown in
the opposite direction.
it has been modified by Khaled Hosny. to work better and it wast tested.
