Re: UTF-8 support needs implementing to fix all bidi/rtl/ltr issues

Thanks Patrick.  Do you accept AlertPay or Moneybooker payments?

With the new fix, can I just wrap a stanza in U+202A .. U+202C to get
the desired effect?  At some point, when RTL is implemented for the
musical notes, I may want to let the Hebrew do the natural thing, and
put in some U+202B..U+202C to make the English text stay in sync with
it.

              But you don't understand it until it makes you weep.
