This has been needed in the +Arabic, Persian and Hebrew languages among others. + +Acon +---- +Written by Ahmed Abdel-Hamid Mohamed, this was the first program +that enjoyed relatively wide support, as it was distributed in +Mandrake. + +Akka +---- +The second effort has gone into improving the original acon code +and giving it vast additional abilities, this was the Akka +project, in Arabeyes. The Akka project is still there, if +somebody wants to look at it. Key contributors are Chahine +Hamila, Mohamed Elzubeir and Samy Al Bahra. It reached the +version 1.0 beta, but the code is becoming too complicated for +further enhancements. Additional information is found in the +project site, at Arabeyes. + +Farsi +----- +Taking place more or less parallel to the Akka development, +Behdad Esfahbod - widely known for his work on FriBidi - wrote +"farsi", as a tool doing the same job as Akka, more Persian +oriented. He adopted the basic joining code from Roozbeh +Pournader, and borrowed some from script(1), mixed and matched +with FriBidi and Voila! The code from script(1) proved to be the +major stopper for its distribution. More of the story can be +found in HISTORY.farsi, in this package. + +At last: BiCon +-------------- +The next step in Arabeyes was to base the code on the old farsi +code. After cleaning up the problematic-licensed code and +enhancing Arabic support besides Persian, _BiCon_ was there. + +Here is the old ChangeLog: + + +2004-January Behdad Esfahbod + * *: Well, code is handed to Arabeyes people. Decided to + change the name to "BiCon". I'm not going to be the + maintainer anymore (hopefully). Already imported to + Arabeyes CVS. These nice people have removed the code + borrowed from "script" and replaced with code from Python + sources. We are still to make changes to fit the new + system.
