Notes
1. ^ Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm (UAX#9), As of version 6.0.0
2.^ Possible Bidirectional character types for character property: Bidi_Class or 'type'
3.^ Bidi_Control characters: Seven Bidi_Control formatting characters are defined. They are invisible, and have no effect apart from directionality. Five of them have a unique, overruling Bidi-type that is used by the algorithm; their type is also their acronym (e.g. character 'LRE' has Bidi type 'LRE').
