unichar_direction

Determines the inherent direction of a character.

The inherent direction is either `PANGO_DIRECTION_LTR`, `PANGO_DIRECTION_RTL`, or `PANGO_DIRECTION_NEUTRAL`.

This function is useful to categorize characters into left-to-right letters, right-to-left letters, and everything else. If full Unicode bidirectional type of a character is needed, [func@Pango.BidiType.for_unichar] can be used instead.

Parameters:

ch	a Unicode character
