Personal opinion MLTerm is not a regualr GNOME application and therefore looks ugly and doesn't fit well in the (GNOME based) Ubuntu echo system. Look at it's scrollbar for example - it doesn't use the GNOME theme for drawing but use some old X decoration. Moreover, I havn't seen many users

Why can't users who need or want this just install it from Universe? I think it's a good project, and I'm glad folks support and contribute to it, but I don't see any reason that the current situation doesn't support these users just fine. ** Changed in: mlterm (Ubuntu) Status: New = Won't

this is the final answer? no Arabic language when a user reach for Arabic language support from language selector? is it possible to make this change for Arabic, Farsi, Urdu only? as Hebrew person seems to disagree? -- [MIR] mlterm https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/603022 You received this bug

many terminal application are being translated and that is good news for many language user but for RTL users this mean problem. as I mentioned in my video comparison between Mlterm and Vte you will see unreadable messages from many APT related programs (apt-get ,apt- cache etc...) because they

it could be an additional choice in Language Selector next to Translation Additional fonts input methods and spell checkers it could be RTL enabled terminal (Mlterm) but this is just an idea. many RTL user will already know that Mlterm is better for RTL text, and it could be the default terminal
