Arabic language problem ..

hello there
there is a problem in the arabic language , every letter in the arabic language have 3 cases, at the start, middle and at the end, the problem is that the game can't know how to write it correctly!

it should look like : خشب
and it's look lie : خ‌ش‌ب

also the font is completely messy and unreadable, there is a simple solution for it! if you can make something like if the arabic language is selected then use TrueType font or so, there is a mod called "BetterFonts" , it's really helpful but it's a mod, and we want it to be official 🙂

and we have another problem too, we can't write any arabic letter in the chat! it's because of the LightWeightJavaGameLibrary (LWJGL), there is a problem in the keyboard layout and they've fixed it in the last updates, if you can fix it too that would be Awesome!

i can post some images if you want ..

thanks 🙂

Dinnerbone himself has requested for people to post this here. I think he is unaware of Grum's resolution and considers it a bug, not a suggestion. I wouldn't call it a suggestion either, personally - illegible/malformatted text is a bug, and Arabic is one of the most popular non-Latin-glyph languages.
