========
|
||||
History
|
||||
========
|
||||
|
||||
This program, BiCon, has a very entangled history.
|
||||
That being said, here is a try on explaining it.
|
||||
|
||||
Prologue
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
The program is the last in a series on programs to make the
|
||||
console support bidirectionality. 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 <bicon@behdad.org>
|
||||
* *: 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. Thanks guys.
|
||||
|
||||
==========================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
2002-06-13 Behdad Esfahbod <farsi@behdad.org>
|
||||
* */*.[ch]: Major changes. Support many options now, among them is
|
||||
the option to output logical text, not visual.
|
||||
|
||||
2002-06-12 Behdad Esfahbod <farsi@behdad.org>
|
||||
* keymap/isiri2901.kmap.gz: Proposed key positions for bidi marks
|
||||
added.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-14 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@bamdad.org>
|
||||
* farsi: Makes the shells current directory to be the same as when
|
||||
user runs the script.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-12-05 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@bamdad.org>
|
||||
* fcon/fcon.c: Now accepts parameters to run instead of default /bin/sh.
|
||||
* bin/farsi: Pass parameteres to fcon.
|
||||
* bin/farsidict: A small script for dictionary lookup, using farsi.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-10-13 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@bamdad.org>
|
||||
* */Makefile: Small changes.
|
||||
|
||||
2001-10-04 Behdad Esfahbod <behdad@bamdad.org>
|
||||
* fconsole/Makefile: Set target clean to remove fconsole-config too.

BiCon: a Bidirectional Console
|
||||
|
||||
BiCon can be used under Linux console, or terminal emulators with
|
||||
basic Unicode rendering (UTF-8).
|
||||
|
||||
Run "bicon" to get a console supporting Arabic or Persian according
|
||||
to LANG or specify the country on the command line, for instance:
|
||||
bicon ir # for Persian (Iran)
|
||||
|
||||
Keymaps and fonts for Arabic and Persian are included.
|
||||
|
||||
Use alt+shift to switch keyboard layouts in a graphical environment.
|
||||
To know more:
|
||||
|
||||
"man bicon"
|
||||
and
|
||||
"man bicon.bin"
|
||||
|
||||
See also /usr/doc/bicon-<VERSION>/README.Slackware for BiCon's usage.
|
||||
|
||||
BiCon is maintained by Behdad Esfahbod.

|

Additional information about BiCon's behavior
|
||||
=============================================
|
||||
|
||||
BiCon behaves differently if called as "bicon" or "bicon.bin", and also
|
||||
started from the console (or a tty) versus in a graphical environment.
|
||||
|
||||
BiCon ships two keymaps: arabic.map.gz and ir.map.gz and some console
|
||||
fonts, mainly bicon-8x16-512.psfu.gz.
|
||||
|
||||
It can be started as "bicon" or "bicon.bin"
|
||||
|
||||
If started as "bicon" it sets the keymap or keyboard layout in a way that
|
||||
depends whether the "bicon" command is given or not an argument.
|
||||
|
||||
1) If started as "bicon" from the console.
|
||||
|
||||
If a two characters country code is given as argument it is considered
|
||||
to choose the keymap, else the country (or "territory" to be accurate)
|
||||
part of LANG is used.
|
||||
_ If the country (converted to lowercase letters) is found in this list:
|
||||
ae dz eg iq jo ko kw lb ly ma om qa sa sd sy tn ye
|
||||
then the keymap "arabic" is chosen.
|
||||
_ If the country is "IR" or "ir" then the keymap "ir" is chosen.
|
||||
|
||||
The font bicon-8x16-512 is always used with its Unicode map.
|
||||
|
||||
IMPORTANT. You won't be able to use the "setfont" command after having
|
||||
started bicon as a regular user. You will have to tentatively become root
|
||||
with "su" to change the font if you want.
|
||||
|
||||
2) If started as "bicon" from an X terminal.
|
||||
|
||||
You will need to use an UTF-8 able or enabled terminal.
|
||||
|
||||
A switchable keyboard layout (us + the language that correspond to the
|
||||
country set by the user or found in LANG) is set.
|
||||
|
||||
IMPORTANT:
|
||||
_ BiCon doesn't set the font. You'll have to do that yourself. Be careful
|
||||
to use a font including the needed glyphs.
|
||||
_ BiCon sets the "option" for the X server to:
|
||||
"grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
|
||||
and the "layout" to:
|
||||
"us,<ir or (country code)>"
|
||||
|
||||
This will override the key combination that you possibly have set in
|
||||
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-keyboard-layout.conf to toggle keyboards.
|
||||
|
||||
But you can change the settings made by BiCon with a command like this
|
||||
one (after having started BiCon, of course):
|
||||
setxkbmap \
|
||||
-display "$DISPLAY" \
|
||||
-layout "<layout1>,<layout2>" \
|
||||
-option "<your options"> \
|
||||
-print | \
|
||||
xkbcomp -w 2 - "$DISPLAY"
|
||||
|
||||
3) If started as bicon.bin, BiCon doesn't load any font or keyboard.
|
||||
You might prefer it that way if you want to keep your own settings.
|
||||
|
||||

# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
|
||||
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
|
||||
# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
|
||||
# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
|
||||
# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
|
||||
# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.
