> I have only one question: will it ever have bidi capabilities?

Hello! I am glad that you like Blocek.
Personally I've never had the need for right-to-left writting because I don't speak any language what uses it. Blocek is more or less focused to middle and east european languages. So it is not on my todo list.
Basically it should be possible to support right-to-left writting but real bidi in the meaning of combining left-to-right and right-to-left in ONE LINE would be very difficult.
Now in my plan is better support for word-wrapping operations like fixing the word-wrap into specified value (f.e. 80 chars) or it the opposite way to transform the fixed width text into flow lines.

But don't expected it very soon as for next few months I'll be probably busy with my real life occupation
