Retrospective commit from 2009-10-08. Finish up working on paragraph's base direction. Start working on display of right-to-left glyph rows. Rewrite set_cursor_from_row to support bidi. xdisp.c (string_buffer_position_lim): New function. (string_buffer_position): Most of code moved to string_buffer_position_lim. Last argument and return value are now EMACS_INT; all callers changed. (set_cursor_from_row): Rewritten to support bidirectional text and reversed glyph rows. dispextern.h <string_buffer_position>: Update prototype. bidi.c (bidi_paragraph_init): Fix initialization of POS. dispextern.h (struct glyph_row): New member reversed_p. buffer.c (syms_of_buffer): Remove DEFVAR_LISP_NOPRO for default-direction-reversed, default-bidi-display-reordering, and default-paragraph-direction.

If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please
read the Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on
(1) how to tell when to report a bug, and
(2) how to write a useful bug report and what information
it needs to have.

There are three ways to read the Bugs section.

(1) In a printed copy of the Emacs manual.
You can order one from the Free Software Foundation;
see the file etc/ORDERS.  But if you don't have a copy on
hand and you think you have found a bug, you shouldn't wait
to get a printed manual; you should read the section right away
as described below.

(2) With Info.  Start Emacs, do C-h i to enter Info,
then m Emacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET
to get to the section on bugs.  Or use standalone Info in
a like manner.  (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution,
not part of the Emacs distribution.)

(3) By hand.  Do
    cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs,  Node: Bugs,"

Please first check the file etc/PROBLEMS (e.g. with C-h C-p in Emacs) to
make sure it isn't a known issue.
