I'm sorry to ask this again, but I'm about ready to give up, and want to give
it one last try :-). I've read all the Hebrew related files on IGLU, looked at
the KDE Hebrew pages, and exchanged ideas with a couple of people off the list,
and I still can't see Hebrew fonts in KDE Konsole. 

In case I wasn't clear enough about this before, I don't want to run a Hebrew
aware application (editor, etc) from Konsole. I know how to do this. And I
don't want to run Hebrew on a different tty. What I want is to type Hebrew on
the KDE Konsole command line itself. In case anyone wonders why,.... I just
traded my Cellcom for one that can also receive Hebrew SMS so I want to use the
SMS script with a Hebrew message as a parameter on the command line.

I don't know what I'm missing, but Hebrew **seems** to be set up since I can
see  and type Hebrew in other KDE applications - for instance KMail and KWrite
using iso8859-8 fonts. But, I can't see the Hebrew fonts in Konsole. The
problem is somehow related to fonts aand not to typing or the keyboard, because
even if I cut Hebrew from KWrite and paste it into Konsole, I still get
question marks instead of Hebrew. When I try to select a Hebrew font in
Konsole. I get a partially giibberish error message saying the font doesn't
exist - which makes little sense since I'm choosing from a menu of fonts that
presumably do exist and do support Hebrew.

I'm **almost** sure that this has only been a problem since I updated from
Mandrake 8.0 to 8.1 (Konsole 1.0.2 on KDE 2.2.1). I'm quite sure Hebrew worked
in Konsole before the upgrade.

TIA
