Sorry for the delay in responding to this, but I was in Jerusalem during the
past couple of weeks visiting my family.

In response to Leonard Rosenthal, a Hebrew word-processing program is
available for the Mac from:

Gabi Miro
7 Imber Street.
58410 Holon, Israel
972-3-802-764

I have not personally tried it, but hear it is well done.  In response to
David Spector, the new right-to-left desk accessory advertised in Macworld
seems promising, but I would like to warn people that it is not yet
available for the Laserwriter, only the Imagewriter.  Finally, I have
not yet seen the Hebrew font that comes with it, and many vendor fonts
of Hebrew tend to be somewhat substandard.  (Example:  the Fantastic Fonts   
Hebrew font is horrendous.).

I would be interested to hear of anyone's personal experiences with any
of these utilities.

The above technical opinions are of course my own, and not necessarily
those of the United States government, or the University of California.
