Hi,
When I tried to view unicode text with emacs23.0.60 snapshot of date 20080801, I see rendering is broken. Combinations of characters are appearing broken. I have comparsion done on Fedora 10 Beta system with gedit application. Following is snapshot image link of both applications when tried to view same file.
http://paragn.fedorapeople.org/emacs-23.0.60vsgedit-2.23.92.rendering.png I tried to set Devanagari but no effects on loaded text file to correct broken combinations. Also, output of Hello text from Options->MULE->Multi-lingual Text is broken for Indian languages.
This is first time I am reporting bug for emacs. If needed please ask for more input. Sorry If I have not followed any guidelines for reporting bug ro emacs bugs list.
