Hi (if this gets to a list moderator: please forward this to the list if you see fit. Feel free to edit it if you do) I'm sending this to the list after I got an error in reply to a message I tried to send to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Anyway - I'm now trying the hebrew lyx patch. Looks good. To allow me to input hebrew from a hebrew keyboard I created a iso8859-8 charset file. Actually - I simply took the iso8859-1 file, and added simple mappings for hebrew chars. I'm not entirly sure that it is correct, (but it works). The only problem is that if a hebrew kmap is used some characters get to be converted twice (for instance: "'" is converted by iso8859-8.cdef to ",", but then it is converted again by hebrew.kmap, that thinks that it is a "," key pressed, and converts it to "\tav". I also have a beggining of a hebrew po file (it includes all the menus and some messages), which can be found at: http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir/HebLocale/lyx.po.gz (I'm not sure I will keep working on it) BTW: to quote the error I recieved: Date: 2 Feb 2000 15:37:26 -0000 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: failure notice Hi.
