Allow candidate face painting direction to be set by user. #270

Closed siassaj closed 5 years ago

siassaj commented 5 years ago

The traditional 'right to left' painting makes visual seeking much slower because the first character is one color for length 1 candidates, another color for length 2 candidates and still another color for length 3 candidates. By painting left to right the first character will always be the same color, and similarly so for 2nd and 3rd.

I find the left to right system a lot easier to use, but this pull request allows customization via 'avy-color-direction' which is by default right to left.

Thanks. I've make left to right the default. Please test.
