A weak left-to-right direction
A weak right-to-left direction Neutral: No direction specified
The #PangoDirection type represents a direction in the Unicode bidirectional algorithm; not every value in this enumeration makes sense for every usage of #PangoDirection; for example, the return value of pango_unichar_direction() and pango_find_base_dir() cannot be %PANGO_DIRECTION_WEAK_LTR or %PANGO_DIRECTION_WEAK_RTL, since every character is either neutral or has a strong direction; on the other hand %PANGO_DIRECTION_NEUTRAL doesn't make sense to pass to pango_itemize_with_base_dir().
The %PANGO_DIRECTION_TTB_LTR, %PANGO_DIRECTION_TTB_RTL values come from an earlier interpretation of this enumeration as the writing direction of a block of text and are no longer used; See #PangoGravity for how vertical text is handled in Pango.
