I do not think that we have to implement text direction configurability for TopTitle and Bottom Title. The reason is that we/I should add libfribidi support and fvwm will display automatically text in the good direction for top/bottom title (work in progress here but this may take some times). On the other hands, with a LTR string, LeftTitle and LeftTitleTopToBottom a priori I think that the string will be displayed bottomtotop form the user language point of view. But maybe we should reverse direction in such a situation?? Any way I do not think that all these are big problems because fvwm configuration commands are in English. > So, maybe to clear the same confusion for side titles, name the options as: > > LeftTitleUpsideRight / LeftTitleUpsideLeft (default) > RightTitleUpsideRight (default) / RightTitleUpsideLeft Here I am really confused, maybe the reason is that my english is poor, but I am unable to understand the logic of these names :o) Olivier -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
