This directory contains the following:

icewm-fribidi.patch

   A patch to icewm 1.2.14 for adding support for bidirectional text 
   rendering using the library fribidi. This is an initial patch and
   only only tested in a UTF-8 locale. It only changes the xft mode.

   1. apply patch
   2. run autoconf
   3. Configure with the options --with-i18n --with-fribidi
     3a. if fribidi is installed but not in your patch, use:
         --with-fribidi=/path/to/fribidi-config
   4. When running, be sure to use a UTF-8 locale (or at least: LC_CTYPE)

   The oatch is very simplistic: it simply tries to filter every string printed 
   to the screen through fribidi_log2vis .  This is generally enough as
   there are practically no multi-line strings.

   A better approach would probably be to add a log2vis method to the
   YString class and filter through it window titles and menu items.
