bug#27526: 25.1; Nonconformance to Unicode bidirectionality algorithm due to paragraph separator

[Itai Berli]

OK, so I've managed to get the C-h v to work by running `make install`.

I've tested the feature, and it works. Thanks!

However, it can only be changed in the current buffer, and only by executing M-: (setq ...). Can you please make it possible to set this variable globally, say in the .emacs file, as well as to customize it with M-x set-variable?

I cannot access the variables; not only these, but all others too. When I execute C-h v, the echo buffer says:

The variables are bidi-paragraph-start-re and bidi-paragraph-separate-re.
Their doc strings should have the details you need; in particular, the
settings for your case are already described there as an example.
You can also find their description in the manual.
