Description

A library implementing the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm, which is needed to display mixed left-to-right and right-to-left text correctly. Applications use it for languages such as Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, and mixed-language documents.

Most users receive it as a dependency through text-rendering software. It does not add a visible app; it helps other programs lay out multilingual text properly.
