/* fribidi_remove_bidi_marks - remove bidi marks out of an string
 *
 * This function removes the bidi and boundary-neutral marks out of an string
 * and the accompanying lists.  It implements rule X9 of the Unicode
 * Bidirectional Algorithm available at
 * http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr9/#X9, with the exception that it removes
 * U+200E LEFT-TO-RIGHT MARK and U+200F RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK too.
 *
 * If any of the input lists are NULL, the list is skipped.  If str is the
 * visual string, then positions_to_this is  positions_L_to_V and
 * position_from_this_list is positions_V_to_L;  if str is the logical
 * string, the other way. Moreover, the position maps should be filled with
 * valid entries.
 * 
 * A position map pointing to a removed character is filled with \(mi1. By the
 * way, you should not use embedding_levels if str is visual string.
 * 
 * For best results this function should be run on a whole paragraph, not
 * lines; but feel free to do otherwise if you know what you are doing.
 *
 * Returns: New length of the string, or \(mi1 if an error occurred (memory
 * allocation failure most probably).

/* fribidi_log2vis - get visual string
 *
 * This function converts the logical input string to the visual output
 * strings as specified by the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm.  As a side
 * effect it also generates mapping lists between the two strings, and the
 * list of embedding levels as defined by the algorithm.
 *
 * If NULL is passed as any of the the lists, the list is ignored and not
 * filled.
 *
 * Note that this function handles one-line paragraphs. For multi-
 * paragraph texts it is necessary to first split the text into
 * separate paragraphs and then carry over the resolved pbase_dir
 * between the subsequent invocations.
 *
 * Returns: Maximum level found plus one, or zero if any error occurred
 * (memory allocation failure most probably).
