DESCRIPTION

12       This module provides various constants defined by the fribidi library.
13       They can be used with some of the low-level functions in Text::Bidi,
14       such as "get_bidi_types" in Text::Bidi, but are of little interest as
15       far as standard usage is concerned.
16
17       Note that, though these are variables, they are read-only.
18
19       •   Constants of the form FRIBIDI_TYPE_FOO are available as
20           $Text::Bidi::Type::FOO. See fribidi_get_bidi_type(3) for possible
21           constants.
22
23       •   Constants of the form FRIBIDI_MASK_FOO are converted to
24           $Text::Bidi::Mask::FOO. See fribidi-bidi-types.h for possible masks
25           and how to use them.
26
27       •   Constants of the form FRIBIDI_PAR_FOO are converted to
28           $Text::Bidi::Par::FOO. See fribidi_get_par_embedding_levels(3) for
29           possible constants.
30
31       •   Constants of the form FRIBIDI_FLAG_FOO or FRIBIDI_FLAGS_FOO are
32           converted to $Text::Bidi::Flag::FOO or $Text::Bidi::Flag::FOO. See
33           fribidi_reorder_line(3) and fribidi_shape(3) for possible
34           constants. As a special case, FRIBIDI_FLAGS_ARABIC is also
35           available as $Text::Bidi::Flag::ARABIC
36
37       •   Constants of the form FRIBIDI_JOINING_TYPE_FOO are converted to
38           $Text::Bidi::Joining::FOO. See fribidi_get_joining_type(3) for
39           possible constants.
40
41       •   Constants of the form FRIBIDI_CHAR_FOO are converted to the
42           character they represent, and assigned to $Text::Bidi::Char::FOO.
43           See fribidi-unicode.h for possible constants.
