--- Comment #30 from Aric Stewart aric@codeweavers.com 2011-05-17 08:53:40 CDT --- Unfortunately I am working on a Mac. I am not able to easily reproduce your input issues. I would recommend creating a new bug and putting that information there. I will take a look at it when I get a chance.
I would be able to reproduce your shaping issues. So if you attach a unicode txt document with the string that is not being shaped correctly I can look.
You should be able to save the document with kedit and then load it with notepad to look at it.

I believe that wine's usp10 may be able to display Persian in the correct order. Shaping is not yet implemented.
I have tried it and persian texts are not shown correctly at all.
Hello could you give me some example unicode strings that are not being shaped correctly and maybe some images to demonstrate the issue.
That will help me track down and correct the issues.
1- Download and install a windows program such as firefox : http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/new/
2- Install tahoma fonts on your linux :
mkdir -p cd /usr/share/fonts/persian-fonts cd /usr/share/fonts/persian-fonts wget http://vps5.in/files/tahoma.zip unzip fonts.zip rm -fr fonts.zip fc-cache -f -v
3- Install Persian ( Farsi : IR / FA ) keyboard input on your linux system.
4- I have attached some new files. It seems that in newer wine version The Persian characters input is not recognizing correctly ! I have typed many things on Notepad of wine ( or firefox ), but as you see just a few bat charachters have been typed . This is while the KWrite is working correctly !
Please first try to fix the input bug , then I will help to fix the shaping bug.
I am using wine-1.1.42 from your debian repo. Is there any newer version available on repo ?
