I don't see a bidirectional patch for dmenu, but rofi does support it.

Great.
Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.

Re: [SOLVED] Arabic text is inverted in alacritty dmenu
Thank you seth for your atintion
this a message for Arabs which translate the problem
الان لا يوجد باتش لتطبيقات سكلس حتى تدعم اللغة العربية يمكنكم استخدام كل من
1 rofi
2 kitty
و قوموا بالبحث عن تطبيقات تدعم اللغة العربية من خلال التاكد انها تدعم
RTL
ملحوظة قمت بعمل طلب لتطبيقات سكلس على سب ريدت اسالهم عن مدى امكانية الدعم للعربية ممكن ان تبحثوا فى
riddit
و السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته
