well, I do think that it should be done by a higher level toolkit. Like in windows....
Please remember that shift9 means open braces, and shift0 means close them. How they are represented on screen is another thing. X is doing something that before qt did.

Before people used visual hebrew since logical was not available, but when logical was available it had broken the visual which was hacked. - diego ביום ראשון, 9 בפברואר 2003, 20:41, Nadav Har'El כתב: > On Sun, Feb 09, 2003, Tzafrir Cohen wrote about "Re: Re: xkb handling in upcoming 4.3.0": > > Well, if anybody has any objections now, all I can say is that it was > > open ofr comments on ivrix-discuss and i18n@xfree for quite a while, and not everybody knows or uses those mailing lists... if you find something interesting post it here, we will discuss it until our mail box will be too full and the you can post the results to the original mailing list.
