Description jambomambo 2014-09-05 09:11:57 UTC
First of all, thank you for developing such a good tool!

I work with Arabic and I found on both the latest Ubuntu 14.04 (latest version by default, I guess) and Win7 (version 2.X here) that while working with right-to-left text the arrows make the cursor move in the right direction, but it moves in the opposite direction when shifting it with Ctrl to move word by word.

I guess it is an easy thing to fix, but not so much people work with RtL script in Gedit?

Regards!

David
