[Kdiff3-user] bugs with utf-8 files (i.e. arabic)

[Bernd H. <bh...@gm...>]

Hello,
kdiff sounds like a great idea, exactly what I've been looking for. So I 
testdrove and had to find out that mixed texts don't work or that arabic 
in general doesn't work. Since I don't want to post some hundred kb in 
images, check the two pngs and see what's wrong with it. The letters are 
not joines as they should be in arabic. That's the main problem and 
would be great if this could be solved.

Hi Bernd,

Thank you for the info. I am aware that support for arabic could still be much 
improved. Yet currently I lack the time for more effort in that direction.

Cheers,
Joachim
