Ever since July 2023, i have been thinking about adding back Arabic and Hebrew support for decancer without causing issues because of their right-to-left madness. Then i've found unicode-bidi which rerenders your mixed RTL/LTR text in memory as it were to be rendered by a web browser.

The plan is to somehow implement its algorithm here - an attempt has been in the works since then, but due to school and the complexity of Unicode's bidirectional algorithm, it has been in hiatus for months.

Because of this, development on this library has (publicly) stagnated as the attention has been directed to this enhancement.

Update as of 21 January 2024: This library now supports unicode bidi! Some testing and tweaks needs to be done first before being released as decancer v2.0.
