One question I have, although it's not a pressing need: will bidi work in tables with the memoir class? There's usually a warning message that says:<br>
<br>

Package bidi Warning: You are using the package array (or the memoir class).<br>
Unfortunately right-to-left tabular environments are not<br>
yet supported with the array package..</blockquote></blockquote><div><br>The current version of bidi package will support all tabular packages such as standard latex tabular, tabulary, tabularx, array, stabular, supertabular and a few others. The warning has been removed. But if you typeset a table in RTL mode, you might get a warning saying \overfull hbox or something like that when you are using array package with the bidi package. Please note that bidi should be the last package you load. Now I also have written a modified version of the memoir class (bidimemoir). So if your intention is to write a full document in RTL, you should use bidimemoir class but if you just want to write some pieces of texts RTL and not the whole document, you can use memoir class.<br>

At present, I'm not trying to use RTL (Arabic) in a table ... but I'd like to in future.</blockquote><div><br>That is ok. You can use RTL in tables any time. We support all tabular packages in this version of bidi. But due to xetex limitations, if you use longtable in RTL mode, unfortunately your table can not be broken when you have reached end of the page. <br>
