FRIBIDI(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation FRIBIDI(1)NAMEfribidi.pl - Convert logical text to visual, via the unicode bidi
algorithm
VERSION
version 2.09
SYNOPSIS
# display bidi text given in logical order in foo.txt
fribidi.pl foo.txt
# same, but force Right-To-Left paragraph direction
fribidi.pl--rtl foo.txt
# same, but break lines on spaces
fribidi.pl--rtl --break -- foo.txt
DESCRIPTION
This script is similar to the fribidi(1) program provided with
libfribidi, and performs a subset of its functions. The main point is
to test Text::Bidi and provide a usage example.
OPTIONS
--(no)ltr
Force all paragraph directions to be Left-To-Right. The default is
to deduce the paragraph direction via the bidi algorithm.
--(no)rtl
Force all paragraph directions to be Right-To-Left. The default is
to deduce the paragraph direction via the bidi algorithm.
--width=n
Set the width of the output lines to n. The default is to use the
terminal width, or 80 if that cannot be deduced.
--break[=s]
Break the line at the string s. If this is given, the width
functions as an upper bound for the line length, and the line might
be shorter. The default value for s is ' ', but note that anything
following the option will be interpreted as the argument, unless it
is of the form "--...".
--levels
Also output the embedding levels of the characters. Mostly for
debugging.
--help,-?
Give a short usage message and exit with status 1
--version
Print a line with the program name and exit with status 0
ARGUMENTS
Any argument is interpreted as a file name, and the content of all the
files, as well as the standard input are concatenated together.
