If I understand you correctly, what you're saying is if I write my
mostly Russian mail in a text editor, and want to insert a Hebrew
word, my text editor should insert a label before it, and a
switch-back-to-russian label after? Keeping those labels invisible of
course? Or some such thing? In other words, make my perfectly normal
emacs *text* editor another ms-word-like monstrosity? And BTW, who and
how will decide how to display those chars, which font to use?
Mixing 2 non-ascii charsets in a single simple text document is not
possible using 8-bit charsets, and I don't think it is practicalbe to
do this using labels - too much PITA. And as far as I can see, this
can be done using unicode, and although probably not perfectly, in a
much more painless way... just my 2 kopecks... :)
