</span>Very nice! I tried this magic incantation in github and it's a good<br>
start:<br>

<br>
Note how the third paragraph, which I started with the incantation "‫",<br>
has the correct right-to-left order.<br>
<br>
What is still very suboptimal about this solution is that:<br>
<br>
1. You need to manually type that ugly incantation on every Hebrew<br>
paragraph.<br>
<br>
2. The paragraph is not right-justified (I guess there's a separate<br>
incantation to do that).<br>
<br>
3. Github's "editor" makes it really difficult to type and edit these<br>
kind of paragraphs.<br>
<br>
I wish things could have been much simpler - as in bidiv.<br>
