A Free Implementation of the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm.
The library implements all of the algorithm as described in the "Unicode
Standard Annex #9, The Bidirectional Algorithm,
http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr9/". FriBidi is exhautively
tested against Bidi Reference Code, and due to our best knowledge, does
not contain any conformance bugs.
In the API, we were inspired by the document "Bi-Di languages support -
BiDi API proposal" by Franck Portaneri which he wrote as a proposal for
adding BiDi support to Mozilla.
Internally the library uses Unicode entirely. The character property
function was automatically created from the Unicode property list data
file, PropList.txt, available from the Unicode Online Data site. This
means that every Unicode character will be treated in strict accordance
with the Unicode specification. The same is true for the mirroring of
characters, which also works for all the characters listed as mirrorable
in the Unicode specification.
