+ * the behavior of ubidi_setPara() by handling the main text as if followed
+ * by the first strong character or digit appearing in the epilogue, if any.<p>
+ *
+ * Note 1: if <code>ubidi_setContext</code> is called repeatedly without
+ * calling <code>ubidi_setPara</code>, the earlier calls have no effect,

+ * cancels any previous setting of non-empty prologue or epilogue.
+ * The next call to <code>ubidi_setPara()</code> will process no
+ * prologue or epilogue.<p>
+ *
+ * Note 3: users must be aware that even after setting the context
+ * before a call to ubidi_setPara() to perform e.g. a logical to visual
+ * transformation, the resulting string may not be identical to what it
