RTL language appears in the wrong direction

#1

I’ve just installed SublimeText2 and it looks great.
Sometimes I need to write in Arabic and Hebrew, both are RTL languages.
The letters are being shown, it is utf8, but the direction is not right, and it showing all from left to right, making it hard to read (first letter of word comes last, last letter of word comes first, etc, all is mixed)
In Notepad++ it is working just well, I use it under WinXP (didn’t try on Win7 yet).
I tried to look the preference settings, but found no setting than relates to that. Is there a way to solve this?

Thanks,
Maor

Is there any news on this?
I really need it to work. Its very hard to know what to change if the letters are flipped

insted of “this” you see “siht”

Agreed, w/out proper support for displaying RTL text, Sublime is rendered unusable to some degree.
