Overview
The actual shaping that is done depends on the flags set. Only flags starting with FRIBIDI_FLAG_SHAPE_ARAB_ affect this function. Currently these are:
* FRIBIDI_FLAG_SHAPE_MIRRORING: Do mirroring.
* FRIBIDI_FLAG_SHAPE_ARAB_PRES: Shape Arabic characters to their presentation form glyphs.
* FRIBIDI_FLAG_SHAPE_ARAB_LIGA: Form mandatory Arabic ligatures.
* FRIBIDI_FLAG_SHAPE_ARAB_CONSOLE: Perform additional Arabic shaping suitable for text rendered on grid terminals with no mark rendering capabilities.
Of the above, FRIBIDI_FLAG_SHAPE_ARAB_CONSOLE is only used in special cases, but the rest are recommended in any environment that doesn't have other means for doing Arabic shaping. The set of extra flags that enable this level of Arabic support has a shortcut named FRIBIDI_FLAGS_ARABIC.
