Now, if you or someone you know could program LTR support into Widelands, that would be really great :). I guess it is hard to get right for someone who has no idea how it should look. Maybe this site can be helpful in determining how it should look: http://www.i18nguy.com/MiddleEastUI.html Busy indexing nil values Top Quote

Easiest solution would still - as then - to be with implementing the text renderer with pango through sdl_pango. Unfortunately I have not really been able to find out how to do this with the OpenGL backend. CMake is evil. Top Quote
