fribidi_log2vis works only with single lines. So I'm going here to: * split paragraph into single lines, * process each line with fribidi_reorder_line(), * combine result back to paragraph.
Is it right?

I suppose that "off" parameter of fribidi_reorder_line() is equal to size of all previous lines (with line breaks) in paragraph. Is it correct?

Besides minors, is it right?

Nice! Thanks.


I was trying to find any example with fribidi and multiline paragraphs, but without any success. Do you know any?
