I'm a permanent guest at the Standards Israeli Institute's
sub-committee for Hebrew in computerized systems. Very recently,
someone asked to reopen the Hebrew keyboard standard to address
precisely these types of deficiencies. The standard is up for
rediscussion sometime this year. Hopefully, the new standard will
address all missing characters, as well as resolve the horrid location
in which diacritics are currently placed. Shachar -- Shachar Shemesh Lingnu Open Source Consulting Ltd. http://www.lingnu.com |
