           Summary: Konsole 4 is unusable for RTL desktops
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: elcuco kde org


Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

When running konsole on RTL desktops, the console display text layout direction is set to RTL which causes the console text to be rendered in RTL mode, and not LTR as the applications expect. I am attaching a screen shot which demostrates the problem.

(BTW, mc works pretty good, and it's really funny to look at, I strongly suggest running it under a Konsole in RTL mode).

You can reproduce the problem by running "konsole --reverse".
