[Bug 263822] Re: Arabic support in terminal (BiDi)
from upstream: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=321490#c15 ### Hi, Since the VTE does not support RLT languages, wouldn't it be possible to really do so and say 'I do not support this locale, falling back to standard locale C' ? I agree, it is not a fix at all, but at least users would have readable english instead of unreadable RTL language. The counterpart would be that all application launched from the VTE will inherit from this locale. what's your opinion ? ### I think this is the best thing to do for now since the upstream are not going to fix it any time soon ** Summary changed: - Arabic support in terminal (BiDi) + RTL (right to left) support in terminal (BiDi) -- RTL (right to left) support in terminal (BiDi) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263822 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

this is more important than just using Finch. if you ls files for example you will get unreadable Arabic text. and similar thing on apt- get messages in localized environment. ** Attachment added: screenshot http://launchpadlibrarian.net/40135493/non-latin_problem.png -- Arabic support in terminal (BiDi) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/263822 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This issue is also important for Hebrew speakers.
