As not being a Java developer, I don't know if adding BiDi support can be done in Java, or not yet.
I'm using jEdit for all my code-writing needs, and I wish it can support BiDi to allow me to write/edit Arabic.
Currently, with 4.2, I'm able to write Arabic, but it doesn't align properly with other english text.
also, If I tried to select any word of the arabic sentence, the selection doesn't seem to select the word highlighted, so when I begin typing to edit the selected word, it actually edits a completely different word.
Cheers,
