Description alekulyn 2016-12-06 05:22:55 UTC
When Arabic text is written to the terminal, the entire line is shifted down and letters that dip low are truncated.  This is only a problem when BiDi is enabled in the current profile.  Turning BiDi off fixes this, but BiDi is necessary because Arabic is an RTL language.
