Support right-to-left languages #31
Comments
hello I am native Arabic speaker if you need any help just ask me its my pleasure |
Thanks! Here are a few questions:
|
sorry for the delay What terminal are you using? Do you need to do anything to enable right-to-left support? Is the command prompt itself right-to-left? Or individual words, for instance $ cd ARABIC_FOLDER, does the folder name itself write right-to-left? With a monospace font (in the terminal), are all characters 1-cell wide (like latin alphabet), or are some 2-cells wide (like some asian alphabets)? |
Some languages like Japanese and Chinese can write right-to-left (and/or top to bottom), but are fine with the usual left-to-right orientation.
Other languages like Arabic simply must be written right-to-left (I think?), so we may need some support for those.
Low priority for now, as I know next to nothing about how RTL languages are usually used on terminals.
