[XeTeX] Follow-up to previous mail about hyphenation

[Yannis Haralambous]

Silly of me, when adding the \lccode information also in the TeX file… it works. And not only once
in a word, but for all hyphenation points. I was persuaded having done so, but apparently I didn't. Anyway,
now everything suddenly seems to work. Totally weird…

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{polyglossia,fontspec}
\setdefaultlanguage{arabic}
\newfontfamily{\arabicfont}[Script=Arabic,Extension=.ttf,Scale=1.2]{Amiri-Regular}
\textwidth1mm
\begin{document}

\catcode"200D=11 %JOINER
\lccode"200D="200D
\lefthyphenmin1
\righthyphenmin1

\makeatletter\language8
\arabicfont
