Within mlterm vim doesnt know arabic characters though it knows them in konsole

Hello All,

it has just been discussed (in 2009), why 'vim' cannot present latin
and arabic based words in right order in bilingual texts, as for
instance 'gedit' can. In ':help arabic.txt' the use of 'mlterm' in
combination with 'vim' is suggested.

Though 'vim' knows arabic characters within konsole, in my mlterm
environment it has forgotten about them and displays only empty
rectangles in ':set arabic'-mode. Why?

Please, is there an easy way to teach 'vim' (or 'mlterm'?) arabic
in 'mlterm'-environment?

Regards,

Rudolf
