[FriBidi] Mixed RTL and numeric strings

[Ian Walberg]

Behdad,

That seems to give the same result.

Can you send me a utf8 string that you think should work with a minus sign?

Thanks

Ian

Behdad,

Ok great, how do we insert that? Say using a text editor? We use ultra edit.

Thanks

Ian

I think the easiest way to fix this is to use U+2212 MINUS SIGN instead of ASCII HYPHEN-MINUS.
