33 | <para>Sets direction of text flow and text alignment based on locale.

34 | The value is normally taken from the gentext file for the

35 | lang attribute of the document's root element, using the
|
---|
36 | key name 'writing-mode' to look it up in the gentext file.
|
---|
37 | But this param can also be
|
---|
38 | set on the command line to override that gentext value.
