Visidata with RTL text

Visidata with RTL text

If anybody doesn't yet use Visidata, then give it a look. It is
ostensibly a tool for looking at tabular data, like CSV files, but it
works with so many formats that I find myself using it very often as
it is easier to use than purpose-built tools. I even use it to poke
around the filesystem sometimes.

Visidata unfortunately places consecutive RTL cells in reverse order.
Here's the bug that I filed:
https://github.com/saulpw/visidata/issues/1392

It would be great if someone could add something constructive to that
bug report. I personally have many CSV files and other files with
Hebrew and Arabic text. Thanks.
