Hi Lefteris,

Quoted 5 lines · Lefteris Dimitroulakis

Here is the iso_8859-6.7 man page for the arabic language along with screenshots from konqueror and xterm. xterm was used here because it was impossible
to display on the konsole the zero width characters included in the man page.

Thanks! I added this for man-pages-3.18.

After a bit of web searching, I added the following text to the page:

==
.SH NOTES
ISO 8859-6 lacks the glyphs required for many related languages, such as Urdu and Persian (Farsi).

Okay?

Cheers,

Michael
