Retrospective commit from 2009-12-26. Redesign handle_stop_backwards. Fix character mirroring for non-ASCII characters. xdisp.c (handle_stop_backwards): Call compute_stop_pos in the loop, instead of calling handle_stop. Call handle_stop only once, after the loop. (next_element_from_buffer): Don't call handle_stop_backwards if at stop position. If base_level_stop is zero, set it to 1. term.c (append_glyph): Fill resolved_level and bidi_type slots of struct glyph for unidirectional display. xdisp.c (set_cursor_from_row): Handle zero-width characters. bidi.c (bidi_mirror_char): More efficient code (suggested by Ehud Karni <[e-mail]>). Don't even try to mirror non-ASCII characters.

The GNUstep port was made possible through the assistance of Adam
Fedor, Fred Kiefer, M. Uli Klusterer, Alexander Malmberg, Jonas
Matton, and Riccardo Mottola.  Leigh Smith maintained the SourceForge
project for a period.

Suggestions from Darcy Brockbank, Timothy Bissell, Scott Byer, David
Griffiths, Scott Hess, Eberhard Mandler, John C. Randolph, and Bradley
Taylor all helped things along at one point or another.  Axel Seibert
<seiberta@@informatik.tu-muenchen.de> and Paul J. Sanchez
<paul@@whimsy.umsl.edu> offered their time and machines to make a
binary release possible.

We would also like to thank a number of people who kept up the
constant supply of bug reports, suggested features and praise: Hardy
Mayer, Gisli Ottarsson, Anthony Heading, David Bau, Jamie Zawinski,
Martin Moncrieffe, Simson L. Garfinkel, Richard Stallman, Stephen
Anderson, Ivo Welch, Magnus Nordborg, Tom Epperly, Andreas Koenig,
Yves Arrouye, Anil Somayaji, Gregor Hoffleit; and the few hundred
other people on the mailing list from whom we didn't hear much, but
the presence of which assured us that maybe this project was actually
worth doing.
