Hi,

I realized it is probably a bug in putty, so I wrote to
putty at projects.tartarus.org and got a reply.

However the putty developers might need help to fix it as they are not
RTL-language speaking themselves, so if you know how to do it you can write
to them or send them a patch of the source code. I tried to look at the
putty source code myself but it looks complicated and I don't know how to
fix this bug for myself. There is an option to disable bidirectional text
display in putty, but then the Hebrew text is reversed too.
