Short Descriptions

fribidi is a command-line interface to the libfribidi library and can be used to convert a logical string to visual output.
fribidi-config is used to acquire information about the installed libfribidi library.
libfribidi.{so,a} contains functions used to implement the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm.
