[emacs-bidi] editing hebrew latex

[Tzafrir Cohen]

Hi

I want to use emacs to edit hebrew latex files.

>From a brief look of this list I see that this has been previously
discussed a bit, but not much.

Basically heblatex uses some sort of explicit bidi algorithm. One existing
text editor that implments this "algorithm" quite well is he2
(http://he2.sf.net/) .

Has anybody tried implementing this with emacs?

The editor I currently use is vim . Vim does not have a real bidi support,
but it has a poor-man's bidi support: it can reverse the whole buffer.
When the buffer is reversed I can view hebrew text properly (but not
english text or macros, which appear reversed).

Has anybody tried implementing this?
