Mozilla and Pango integration
Sayamindu reports that Christopher Blizzard has added a new feature to Mozilla which enables it to handle complex scripts like Hindi, Thai, Tamil etc through Pango. Pango provides an open-source framework for the layout and rendering of internationalized text.
Christopher Blizzard posts this update in his blog. On the downside, there are still problems with Arabic and it is a bit slower. Hindi, Tamil and Urdu however are now rendering fine.
Sayamindu has a screenshot and reports that while rendering has been perfect, there are glitches in text selection and that he is having problems with printing.
