+
+
+
+
+<p> The TQHebrewCodec class provides conversion to and from
+visually ordered Hebrew.
+<p> Hebrew as a semitic language is written from right to left.
+Because older computer systems couldn't handle reordering a string
+so that the first letter appears on the right, many older
+documents were encoded in visual order, so that the first letter
+of a line is the rightmost one in the string.
+<p> In contrast to this, Unicode defines characters to be in logical
+order (the order you would read the string). This codec tries to
+convert visually ordered Hebrew (8859-8) to Unicode. This might
+not always work perfectly, because reversing the <em>bidi</em>
+(bi-directional) algorithm that transforms from logical to visual
+order is non-trivial.
+<p> Transformation from Unicode to visual Hebrew (8859-8) is done
+using the bidi algorithm in TQt, and will produce correct results,
+so long as the codec is given the text a whole paragraph at a
+time. Places where newlines are supposed to go can be indicated by
+a newline character ('\n'). Note that these newline characters
+change the reordering behaviour of the algorithm, since the bidi
+reordering only takes place within one line of text, whereas
+line breaks are determined in visual order.
+<p> Visually ordered Hebrew is still used tquite often in some places,
+mainly in email communication (since most email programs still
+don't understand logically ordered Hebrew) and on web pages. The
+use on web pages is rapidly decreasing, due to the availability of
+browsers that correctly support logically ordered Hebrew.
+<p> This codec has the name "iso8859-8". If you don't want any bidi
+reordering to happen during conversion, use the "iso8859-8-i"
+codec, which assumes logical order for the 8-bit string.
+<p>See also <a href="i18n.html">Internationalization with TQt</a>.

+<h3 class=fn><a href="qcstring.html">TQCString</a> <a name="fromUnicode"></a>TQHebrewCodec::fromUnicode ( const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">TQString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;uc, int&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;lenInOut ) const<tt> [virtual]</tt>
+</h3>
+Transforms the logically ordered <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a>, <em>uc</em>, into a visually
+ordered string in the 8859-8 encoding. TQt's bidi algorithm is used
+to perform this task. Note that newline characters affect the
+reordering, since reordering is done on a line by line basis.
+<p> The algorithm is designed to work on whole paragraphs of text, so
+processing a line at a time may produce incorrect results. This
+approach is taken because the reordering of the contents of a
+particular line in a paragraph may depend on the previous line in
+the same paragraph.
+<p> Some encodings (for example Japanese or UTF-8) are multibyte (so
+one input character is mapped to two output characters). The <em>lenInOut</em> argument specifies the number of TQChars that should be
+converted and is set to the number of characters returned.
