That makes that matter clearer.

When I commented it out, th= e glyphs connected again. With my setting you create a new font feature =94arabic=94 which inherits t= he setting from the =94default=94 features with the extra settings =93mode= =3Dnode=94 and =94script=3Darabic=94 while your settings extends the =94def= ault=94 features with these values. I did this because you use the =94arabi= c=94 font feature in the \definemainfontfallback setup but i forgot that co= ntext already has a =93arabic=94 feature which enables a lot of font option= s which you need. > Finally, so that I can start learning on my own without bothering you and= everyone else on the list, where would I have systematically found a discu= ssion of RtL feaures such as rule=3Dright? Maybe in the list archive but often such things are discussed offline, i fo= und it myself in the source. > Or are there any preexisting example files of complicated Arabic that I c= ould study and learn from? I guess the wiki page you already know is currently the only source.
