           Summary: arabic (and probably other RTL languages) dont render
                    correctly in Notepad
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.1.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-binary
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: maysara_a_a at yahoo.com


Trying to write arabic in notepad doesn't render correctly at all, changing the
window and getting back to it makes things a little better(you can read seperate
characters), but still doesn't do the shaping or binding, and thus it unusable
as an editor (This issue probably affects lots of other stuff related to RTL).

To duplicate, just open notepad in wine, set keyboard layout to arabic and type
anything in notepad.starting from the letter "a" to "l", things should look like:
ÔÓíÈáÇÊäã

so try to press those keys and look how it looks.then switch to another window ,
then get back to notepad, see how it looks again, in both cases its not the
desired behaviour.
