#
Loqi [Kevin Marks] ”® inline RTL works in reverse without implementers knowing #indieweb
#
tantek neat
#
KevinMarks_ note that the RTL marker in that posts makes it all the way through the various processing chains, into IRC and back into the logs on the web
#
KevinMarks_ Twitter is stripping it, but that may be because it is the most extreme one thta reverses roman text
#
KevinMarks_ if there is an good example of mixed-run text, I'll try the same chain

Loqi [Kevin Marks] The title is "مفتاح معايير الويب!”" in Arabic. (exclamation mark should be on left) #indieweb
#
KevinMarks_ so known and loqi get it right
#
KevinMarks_ but twitter gets it wrong https://twitter.com/kevinmarks/status/761275923672993792

#
KevinMarks_ apparently stripping the RLM between the exclamation mark and quote
#
tantek interesting

#
KevinMarks_ hm, facebook seems to strip ti too https://www.facebook.com/10154585682935425/posts/10157247005830425
#
KevinMarks_ when I paste it in a facebook box it goes wrong too
#
KevinMarks_ ditto twitter
#
tantek KevinMarks, pasting into text boxes is not a good test, as it makes sense that those would strip any invisible things that do strange things.
#
tantek The right test is via the API directly
#
KevinMarks_ well, that's what I did with known, paste in the text box
#
KevinMarks_ and if I hover over the tab that known post is in, the title text displays correctly
#
KevinMarks_ hm, that may be because it says " though
#
tantek interesting
#
KevinMarks_ nope, with smart quotes it still works
