Re: [Bug 562130] Re: Selecting an RTL language should install and RTL capable terminal emulator

 

I must agree with Shlomil, MLTerm does look worse than Gnome terminal, not
to talk about how limited it is.
we should just push to solve the bug in Terminal rather than finding other
programs. as Shlomil said, I believe that enough pushing the system will
make Gnome to fix it.
