- In windows, switching to RTL in text boxes is easy by right side "Shift+ctrl" and to switch LTR press Left side "Shift+ctrl", this extension is great for pages, and +1 for the poem !

- *works* on our wiki, would love the Ctrl+Shift+x to be an opt out as its the most convenient. but i understand the logic.

- תוספת פשוטה שעושה את העבודה שלה כמו שצריך. בשבילי זה אביזר משלים לתרגום אתרים בגוגל טרנסלייט. - צריך לסמן בהגדרות שיהיה פעיל גם בדפי אינטרנט.

- I'm a software developer and I need to switch direction for specific components several time a day to test RTL. This plugin works great.
