[tex4ht] tex4ht and RTL

[Vafa Khalighi]

Ok, after creating bidi.4ht (attached), the previous error is gone but now
there is nothing in html output. I get:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

It is obviously using dvips with htxelatex which I believe it should not be
doing.
