Stephen Deach scripsit: > The only scripts identified as RTL in Unicode are Arabic and Hebrew. In fact, Syriac and Tifinagh are already encoded in Unicode, as well as the archaic scripts Cypriot and Kharoshthi. Phoenician has been fully blessed and will be in the next version. Still in the long tail are Old Hungarian (aka rovasiras), Avestan, Mandaic, Samaritan, Manichaean, and perhaps others. -- Newbies always ask: John Cowan "Elements or attributes? http://www.ccil.org/~cowan Which will serve me best?" http://www.reutershealth.com Those who know roar like lions; cowan@ccil.org Wise hackers smile like tigers. --a tanka, or extended haiku
