hebrew are keymaps based on a phonetic layout which non native
speakers
would be interested in.

hebrewp keymaps are what native speakers would use -- people with
real native hebrew keyboards.

this is backwards. the p stands for phonetic



as you point out, they're just vim keymaps. they don't work with anything else like xterm or abiword.

now what i *really* would like is a phonetic keymap for X.  if i use a
phonetic keymap for vim and the native keymap for abiword, i shall
surely go insane....

All you need to do is modify the key mapping you downloaded and
re-arrange things until it is phonetic. That's not terribly difficult to do.
