Subject: Allow disabling the BPA part of bidi reordering
X-Git-Tag: emacs-27.0.90~497
X-Git-Url: http://git.eshelyaron.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5629af9cbe91feee8fb4d896224ed62e455f951d;p=emacs.git

Allow disabling the BPA part of bidi reordering

* src/xdisp.c (syms_of_xdisp): New variable 'bidi-inhibit-bpa'.
* src/bidi.c (bidi_paired_bracket_type): If 'bidi-inhibit-bpa'
is non-nil, return BIDI_BRACKET_NONE for all characters.

* lisp/frame.el: Add 'bidi-inhibit-bpa' to the list of
variables whose changes require redisplay.  (Bug#38407)
