 The **Text Direction RTL** and **Text Direction LTR** are useful for text that needs to be written Right to Left (RTL), or to switch a file back to Left to Right (LTR) viewing after it had previously been set to RTL.  This is especially beneficial for editing Hebrew and Arabic scripts, and any other writing systems that are read Right to Left.
 
+Starting in v8.6.1, Text Direction is set as a per-file option rather than a "global" option; it was a "global" option, applying to all files, before this version.  The RTL state will be stored in the [Session](../session/) file as the `RTL="no"` or `RTL="yes"` attribute for each file in the session; if you manually edit your session file (and restart), for files with `RTL="yes"`, you can add in another attribute `editZoneRTL="no"` in order to tell Notepad++ to display in RTL mode but to have the "edit zone" in the editor be LTR, which may be helpful in certain situations.  RTL mode does not work with the **[Preferences > MISC](./preferences/#misc) > Use Direct Write** option, and if you have that option checkmarked, Notepad++ will pop up a dialog informing you that you'll have to change that setting and restart Notepad++ before you can activate RTL mode.

 ## Live File Monitoring
 
 The **Monitoring (tail -f)** toggle will have Notepad++ watch the current file for live changes in the background, and will update the display as it notices the underlying file change.  This puts the file in a de-facto read-only mode, so that the file cannot be edited in Notepad++ as it's being changed by whatever task is changing the file in the background.  (This is useful for watching a log file as new lines are added to the end, and is inspired by the Linux command `tail -f` which performs a similar function, hence the entry's name.)
