What part of the file is going left or right? If the top is going to the left,
then the bottom is going to the right. There is no absolute left or right
movement, rather, everything is spinning around an axis. The direction of spin
is clockwise or counter clockwise, not left or right.

This has bugged me for a while but I wanted to confirm with a native English
speaker before filing the bug. A friend of my wife is a native English speaker
from England, in Great Britain, so I trust her when she says that this is
common incorrect usage.

Shall I try to contact an authority such as Oxford for an official opinion?
