Python TkInter and tcl/tk is an example of big sad show case for
linux
because in windows TkInter or tcl/tk supports Arabic perfectly
that's because the developers of freetype in Linux dropped opentype
support and moved that to the unfinished harfbazz
harfbuzz is just one component needed to render complex scripts & opentype.
Toolkits should use an upper layer like pango or pango-cairo instead of using
harfbuzz directly.
And pango has been available for a long time (and is hiding the harfbuzz
changes) so toolkit authors should not hide behind harfbuzz creation. Harfbuzz
is just a re-factorization of what's been in pango & qt all along.
