 ______________________________________________________________________

 1.  Introduction

 Any language setup, other than the original American English, has two
 issues:

 1. Displaying the right characters (fonts) - for Hebrew it's
    ISO-8859-8 standard.

 2. Mapping the keyboard.

 There is much more to Hebrew than that (like right to left, geometry
 in X-Windows,etc), but this HOWTO (at least for the first draft) deals
 only with the basic issues.

 More information can be found in the various "national" HOWTOs
 (German, Danish, etc.) and in the ISO 8859-1 HOWTO
 (ftp://ftp.vlsivie.tuwien.ac.at/pub/8bit
 <ftp://ftp.vlsivie.tuwien.ac.at/pub/8bit>  FAQ-ISO-8859-1).


 1.1.  Changes.


 o  FIRST DRAFT to 0.2.

    Most of this file is taken from the first draft by Vlad Moseanu.

 o  0.2 to 0.3Beta.

    Added excerpts from documents from the archive e-brew.zip from
    ftp://ftp.jer1.co.il/pub/software/msdos/communication
    <ftp://ftp.jer1.co.il/pub/software/msdos/communication>, and some
    bug fixes with the help of JCT Linux-il group members.

 o  0.3Beta to 0.4.

    After the first release of the Hebrew-HOWTO to the Linux-il it
    contain all the E-mail send to me regarding spelling/grammer and
    Tex-Xet, Mule and Vim info.


 1.2.  Thanks

 2.  Standards for representation of Hebrew characters



 2.1.  ASCII

 To make one thing clear, for once and forever: There is no such thing
 as 8-bit ASCII. ASCII is only 7 bits. Any 8-bit code is not ASCII, but
 that doesn't mean it's not standard. ISO-8859-8 is standard, but not
 ASCII. Thanks!


 2.2.  DOS Hebrew

 The Hebrew encoding starts at 128d for Aleph. Therefore, encoding
 requires 8 bits. This is what you have on the Video card EPROM
 hardware fonts, all of the Hebrew DOS based editors use this table
 (Qtext, HED, etc.).


 2.3.  ISO Hebrew

 The Hebrew encoding starts at 224 for Aleph. This is the Internet
 standard, international standard and basically the standard for Ms-
 Windows and for Macintoshes (Dagesh, etc...).


 2.4.  OLD PC Hebrew

 This is 7-bit, and obsolete, as it occupies essentially the same ASCII
 range as English lowercase letters. So, it is best avoided. However,
 when ISO Hebrew gets its eighth bit stripped off by some ignorant Unix
 mail program (so you get a jumble of English letters for the Hebrew
 part of your message and the regular English, reversed or not, mixed
 in), you will get this, and will need to transform it to PC or ISO. If
 there was English mixed in with the Hebrew, this will be a sad
 situation, as you will either get Hebrew plus jumble, or English plus
 jumble...


 2.5.  Conversions

 Here are some simple scripts to convert from each standard to the
 other:


      DOS - ISO:      tr '\200-\232' '\340-\372' < {dos_file} > {iso_file}
      ISO - DOS:      tr '\340-\372' '\200-\232' < {iso_file} > {dos_file}
      OLD - DOS:      tr -z '\200-\232' < {old_Hebrew_file} > {dos_file}



 NOTE:   The numbers use by tr are in octal!


 3.  Virtual Consoles (VCs)

 Every distribution of Slackware comes with kbd; the package is called
 keytbls under Slackware (a4 in 2.3.0 - kbd 0.90). Joel Hoffman has
 contributed Hebrew fonts and keymaps from his original codepage.tar.Z
 file. Look under /usr/lib/kbd for iso08.* files. It follows ISO 8859-8
 and the Hebrew keytables and maps.

 Put the following lines in /etc/rc.d/rc.local:



 -----
 #!/bin/sh
 #       Put any local setup commands in here
 #
 INITTY=/dev/tty[1-6]
 PATH=/sbin:/etc:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
 #
 #       kbd - Set the the console font and keyboard
 #       set numlock and set metabit mode on tty1 .. tty8
 for tty in $INITTY
 do
 #       setleds -D +num < $tty > /dev/null
         setmetamode metabit < $tty > /dev/null
 done
 #       Latin8(Hebrew) keyboard/console
 setfont iso08.f16
 mapscrn trivial
 loadkeys Hebrew
 #       enable mapping
 for tty in $INITTY
 do
         echo -n -e "\\033(K" >$tty
 done
 -----



 NOTE: If you are using X Windows be careful with "setleds", it may
 hang the X server.

 The above setup works fine with the Hebrew version of pico (pine) and
 displays correctly ISO 8859-8 Hebrew (X Windows, MS Windows).


 4.  X Windows setup - XFree86 3.1

 4.1.  Hebrew fonts.

 XFree86 3.1 comes with two Hebrew fonts: heb6x13, heb8x13. Additional
 Hebrew fonts can be found on the Net:

 o  The web Type1 fonts (Helvetica/David style (proportional) and
    Courier/Shalom Stick style (fixed space) ) from the snunit-project
    archive at ftp://snunit.huji.ac.il/pub/fonts/
    <ftp://snunit.huji.ac.il/pub/fonts/>, it's good for netscape Hebrew
    pages.

 o  Avner Lottem, ([email protected]) put some Hebrew-ISO
    8859-8 fonts on archive at
    ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/X11/fonts/hebxfonts-0.1.tgz
    <ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/X11/fonts/>, it has a font that's
    good for dosemu under X-Windows (read his README file).


 4.2.  Installing fonts


 o  Fonts exaptable: pcf (Portable Compiled Format), bdf (Bitmap
    Distribution Format), pfb (Type1 fonts).

 o  Move the fonts to some existing directory (/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc)
    or create a new one (/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Hebrew). compress (to *.Z)
    the fonts to save space (NOT GZIP!!!).


 o  Run the mkfontdir to create/re-create the fonts.dir and edit
    fonts.alias (optional) to define new aliases.

 o  For Type1 fonts, mkfontdir does nothing. You have to add these
    fonts to fonts.dir manually.

 o  Make sure that the directory is in the X server path. Edit the
    XF86Config and add the appropriate path -- FontPath
    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/...".


 4.3.  Making an X application to use Hebrew fonts.

 In short you need to set the appropriate resource.


 4.3.1.  Xterm

 Put the following line in the $HOME/.Xresources:

 xterm*font:  heb8x13

 or simply start xterm with xterm -fn heb8x13 The above font is way too
 small, so search for a better one ...  See the comments/examples on
 starting X11.

 4.3.2.  Netscape

 Usaly you can use the hebrew fonts from ``snunit - webfonts'', Install
 it ``as described'', and then put the next defaults in your local
 .Xdefaults or in the app-defaults/Netscape.


      ----
      *documentFonts.latin1.variable.italic*slant:            r
      *documentFonts.latin1.variable.boldItalic*slant:        r
      *documentFonts.latin1.variable*family:                  web
      *documentFonts.latin1.fixed*family:                     webmono
      *documentFonts.latin1*registry:                         iso8859
      *documentFonts.latin1*encoding:                         8
      ----



 In general you can put any fonts insted of the webfonts files as long
 as its supported by X11 ``as described''.

 4.4.  Mapping the keyboard.

 For some reason the X server doesn't inherit the keymap from the
 previous paragraph, and anyway I would like to define ALT Left and ALT
 Right and Scroll Lock. When pressing ALT together with some key it
 will generate a Hebrew character, Scroll Lock will lock in Hebrew
 mode.

 To do that we need to use xmodmap. Following is a Xmodmap which also
 corrects the bugs with the "Num Lock":

 To use the Xmodmap above define "Scroll-Lock  Mode-Lock" in the
 XF86Config.


 4.5.  Integrating all the above, examples.

 If you are using xdm a $HOME/.xsession should look like the following:



 -----
 #!/bin/sh
 # $XConsortium: Xsession,v 1.9 92/08/29 16:24:57 gildea Exp $
 #
 # General defs
 #
 export OPENWINHOME=/usr/openwin
 export MANPATH=/usr/local/man:/usr/man/preformat:/usr/man:/usr/X11R6/man
 #export HOSTNAME="`cat /etc/HOSTNAME`"
 export PATH="/bin: /usr/bin: /usr/X11/bin: /usr/X386/bin: /usr/TeX/bini: /usr/local/bin: /usr/games:."
 LESS=-MM
 if [ -z $XAPPLRESDIR ]; then
         XAPPLRESDIR=/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults:/usr/local/lib/X11/app-defaults
 else
         XAPPLRESDIR=$XAPPLRESDIR:/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults
 fi
 export XAPPLRESDIR
 #
 sysresources=/usr/lib/X11/Xresources
 sysmodmap=/usr/lib/X11/Xmodmap
 resources=$HOME/.Xresources
 xmodmap=$HOME/.Xmodmap
 if [ -f $sysresources ]; then
         xrdb -merge $sysresources
 fi
 if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
         xmodmap $sysmodmap
 fi
 if [ -f $resources ]; then
         xrdb -merge $resources
 fi
 if [ -f $xmodmap ]; then
         xmodmap $xmodmap
 fi
 #
 # Start applications
 #
 # xterm -ls -sb &
 xhost +                 # look out !!!
 exec fvwm
 -----



 If you prefer startx use the above as an example for .xinitrc.


 5.  Shells setup.

 For more details read the ``ISO 8859-1'' HOWTO.


 5.1.  bash

 Create a $HOME/.inputrc contain the following:



      -----
      set meta-flag On
      set convert-meta Off
      set output-meta On
      -----


 5.2.  tcsh

 Define the following in the $HOME/.login or /etc/csh.login:
      setenv LANG iw_IL.ISO8859-8 (or iw_IL) Actually because the
 binary version of tcsh is complied without nls the LANG can be set to
 anything and it will still work (no need for /usr/lib/nls...).  The
 lang. name also shows my Digital bias ...


 6.  Applications

 6.1.  Vim


 o  The Vim is a Vi IMproved editor with some enhanced commands and the
    hebrew support was made bu Dov Grobgeld (HED developer).

 o  Another Vim patch announced by Avner Lottem,
    [email protected] and can be obtained from
    ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/apps/editors/vi/vim3.0-rlh0.1.tgz
    <ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/apps/editors/vi/vim3.0-rlh0.1.tgz>.

 o  For more info, you can look at
    http://www.cs.technion.ac.il/~gil/var.html
    <http://www.cs.technion.ac.il/~gil/var.html>

 6.2.  Hebrew pine and pico

 The pine and it's additional editor pico had been changed by Helen
 Zommer from CC-huji and has a bug-report mail: pineh-
 [email protected]. It can be down-loaded from
 ftp://horizon.cc.huji.ac.il/pub <ftp://horizon.cc.huji.ac.il/pub>.


 6.3.  Some emacs Hebrew ports.


 o  Hebrew package by Joseph Friedman. It includes some Hebrew fonts in
    BDF format, patch for emacs 18.58 and an elisp package. It is fine,
    but nobody uses emacs 18.* anymore. It can be obtained from:
    ftp://archive.cis.ohio-state.edu/pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-
    archive/misc/Hebrew.tar.Z <ftp://archive.cis.ohio-
    state.edu/pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive/misc/Hebrew.tar.Z>.

 o  A very simple Hebrew package. Includes only right-to-left cursor
    movement support and right-to-left sorting. Works without any
    patches with FSF emacs 19. Can be obtained from
    ftp://archive.cis.ohio-state.edu/pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-
    archive/misc/Hebrew.el.Z <ftp://archive.cis.ohio-
    state.edu/pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive/misc/Hebrew.el.Z>.

 o  One of emacs branches - MULE (Multi Lingual Emacs) Supports a lot
    of languages including Hebrew. It compiles and runs under Linux
    with no problem.  It is full Emacs, with Hebrew support and double-
    direction handling. It can be obtained from:
    ftp://kelim.jct.ac.il/pub/Hebrew <ftp://kelim.jct.ac.il/pub/Hebrew>


 6.4.  Dosemu

 For a VC dosemu you can use your Hebrew from the Video card EPROM, and
 if you don't have it there are plenty of Hebrew dos fonts from EGA
 support to the VGA Hebrew support.

 For X-Windows support you should download the file:
 ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/X11/fonts/hebxfonts-0.1.tgz
 <ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/X11/fonts/hebxfonts-0.1.tgz> it's
 contain some fonts include one called vgah.pcf that you should install
 it on your fonts directory as describe ``above'' the fonts are:


 6.5.  XHTerm

 There is a main port of the regular X-Term program for use with a
 Hebrew fonts - XHTerm =  xterm +  Hebrew support. The port for a sun
 machine was made avalible by the help of Danny
 <tt>[email protected]</tt>. Evgeny has some patch for use this port
 under Linux. His version should come with a pre-compiled XHTerm for
 both X11R5 and X11R6. You should use xhterm with the option -fn and a
 Hebrew font ``as described''!  Danny's port (for SUN) can be obtained
 from: ftp://ftp.huji.ac.il/pub/local/xhterm
 <ftp://ftp.huji.ac.il/pub/local/xhterm> and the patched version of
 Evgeny Stambulchik is on: ftp://plasma-
 gate.weizmann.ac.il/pub/software/linux <ftp://plasma-
 gate.weizmann.ac.il/pub/software/linux> Get it from there and you'll
 get 5 ``fonts with  it'': [heb10x20.pcf, heb6x13.bdf, heb6x13.pcf,
 heb8x13.bdf, heb8x13.pcf]


 6.6.  TeX--XeT - Hebrew Tex.

 The bigest problem with Tex with Hebrew is that the charecters should
 go backwards relative to Visual look (i.e. pico inserts the charecters
 from right to left), so the best thing is to get XHterm with a regular
 emacs and write the Hebrew left to right, backwards as well.

 The newer NTeX distribution on sunsite (v1.5) includes everything,
 including TeX--XeT, precompiled for Linux. It can be obtained from
 ftp://sunsite.unc.edu.gz/pub/Linux/apps/tex/ntex
 <ftp://sunsite.unc.edu.gz/pub/Linux/apps/tex/ntex>. An older version
 of TeX--XeT can be obtained from ftp://noa.huji.ac.il/tex
 <ftp://noa.huji.ac.il/tex>. This older version, however, has to be
 recompiled (not recommended).

 These TeX distributions are fine if you use LaTeX2.09. If you want to
 use LaTeX2e (the current de facto standard) you have a problem.  Alon
 Ziv ([email protected]) is currently working in support for
 LaTeX2e with Hebrew, using the Babel languages system. I don't know
 the current status of his work -- ask him!


 7.  Printer setup

 Mainly there is not to say, if you have a regular ASCII line printer
 (who does, these days?) there is a good chance that there are Hebrew
 fonts in it on the EPROM chip.

 If you use PostScript, you should download soft fonts to the printer
 (you can always use the ``earlier mentioned'' Web fonts for that.
 These fonts are also useable with Ghostscript).

 If you have a PCL printer (LaserJet etc.), you can either use font
 cartridges or use Ghostscript.


 8.  Commercial products.

 8.1.  El-Mar software.

 The Hebrew Support for X-Windows & Motif, is a product of El-Mar
 Software, which adds Hebrew functionality to many of the parts and
 layers of X-Windows and Motif, including Xlib, all of the widgets of
 Motif, hterm (Hebrew xterm), demos and simple useful applications
 (e.g. bi-lingual Motif-based editor), fonts (including scalable
 Type1), keyboard-manager in order to allow Hebrew and push-mode for
 non-Motif applications, etc.

 Despite allowing many new features and variations for Motif widgets,
 the support doesn't have any modification to internal data-structures
 of Motif, so existing applications which were compiled and linked
 under non-Hebrew environment and libraries, can be relinked (without
 compilation!) and run with Hebrew (you can replace shared-libraries,
 so even the relink is not needed!)

 By using another tool of us, Motif/Xplorer, you can take commercial
 applications (without their source) and translate them to Hebrew. This
 was the way of giving Hebrew support for Oracle Forms 4, Intellicorp's
 Kappa and OMW, CA-Unicenter, and many other leading UNIX tools sold in
 Israel. This product was purchased and adopted by most of the
 workstation vendors (9 of them, including the biggest: Sun, HP, SGI),
 and many other software houses.  There are Makefiles for more than 30
 platforms and operating systems.

 We believe only in open software, so all the customers get the
 compelete source code. We have good relations with the leading forces
 in this industry, including the technical staff of X-Consortium and
 the technical staff of COSE.

 P.S.: The announcement of the Arabic Support for X-Windows & Motif, is
 expected in January. English, Hebrew, and Arabic will be handled by 8
 bits (!), including the full set of Arabic glyphes.


 9.  Hebrew around the Internet.

 9.1.  WWW


 o  Jerusalem 1 - has many program and FAQ files about Hebrew on Unix
    and other platforms http://www.jer1.co.il <http://www.jer1.co.il>.

 o  Gili Granot's Hebrew archive page - sumerize of all Hebrew related
    issues around the Web (include all kind of files)
