Generally speaking, there is no "correct" way, as in "according to standard X", and AFAIK it's considered these days out of scope for terminals. In that sense mlterm is not really following any standard, apart from the unicode bidi algorithm. What doens't/can't it do? E.g. correctly handle different parts of a line that are unrelated (e.g. if you open mutt and you have Hebrew both in the sender's name and in the Subject, it might not display correctly), it has no means to set the paragraph direction, etc. -- Didi
