v23 v24 26 26 F | XXXXXXXX F | XXXXXXXX F | XXXXXXXX F | 27 27 28 where F is the bidi pseudo character to enforce a Left To Right direction. It is a pseudo character partially because the human user will not see it. It has no width. It is more a control sequence . It is injected to the stream the terminal receives so that its bidi layer can arrange the actual characters correctly. Of course, the Linux console, and any non bidi aware terminal, will get confused by that pseudo bidi character.28 where F is the bidi pseudo character to enforce a Left To Right direction. It is a pseudo character partially because the human user will not see it. It has no width. It is more a control sequence then a character of the language. It is injected to the stream the terminal receives so that its bidi layer can arrange the actual characters correctly. Of course, the Linux console, and any non bidi aware terminal, will get confused by that pseudo bidi character. 29 29 As I wrote, my bidi knowledge is superficial. And I don’t know MC internals.
