Hello, | |||

{{UserCmd|command= sudo someting}} | |||
As you see above the command and the "user $" is in the correct text direction, LTR.

As far as the English text here, is an internal command, it doesn't have to be translated to other languages.

Problem with RTL languages
Hello, First time I encountered this problem was when I was translating a page containing this template to Persian. Somehow I think that the problem is not just about Persian, but about all Right-To-Left languages like Persian. The problem is that the text defined as "command" for this template changes its place from left to right.
Let me make an example so you'd understand it easier:
As you see above the command and the "user $" is in the correct text direction, LTR. But when you view the translated page containing this template and the text direction in that specific language is RTL, it is like you just cut the text from left & paste it to the right! which should never happen.
Explaining with photos is much more easier but, I don't have the permission to upload, so please look at the main English & the translated Persian text on "Reactivating the Backlight" page for example.
As far as the English text here, is an internal command, it doesn't have to be translated to other languages. And of course text direction must not be changed in translations, but the problem doesn't show itself until you translate the main text to RTL languages like Persian, Arabic, Urdu, etc.
