That sounds like one vote for renaming that file. "BidirectionalTextLayout.cpp" :)
Or maybe BidirectionalWordSorting or similar. Mitz and Hyatt are two of very few to ever have hacked on that file. A good file name is better than a document file.

Hi Bin.
Bin Chen:
I am reading the source code of webkit right now, I find a file name like bidi, I can't know the exact meaning, can you tell me whats this stand for?
"Bidi" is an abbreviation for "bidirectional text", and refers to blocks of text that use both left-to-right and right-to-left scripts (e.g. a paragraph with English text that also includes some Arabic text). See:
