Re: Re: Arabic support

You are right !

After invoking emacs -q I could do the following :

- copy from emacs to another application (it worked).
- copy arabic text from two different applications to emacs 
it works correctly exepted that tashkeel seems lost when the source include it.
But after verification if I try to mark the region in question the tashkeel appears :)

In my dot emacs i found what may be the cause of my problem.

 '(selection-coding-system (quote utf-8-dos))
 '(unify-8859-on-decoding-mode t)
 '(unify-8859-on-encoding-mode t)

Thanks

From which application did you copy the Arabic text?
Do you see the same problems with other applications, or just with
this one?
Does it work to copy/paste from one Emacs instance to another?  (I
mean actually invoking "emacs -Q" twice, not pasting from one Emacs
frame to another in the same session.)
Does it work to copy FROM Emacs to another application that is not
Emacs?
