I am not an expert on Hebrew but we have something called CP862 here (the
codepage for Hebrew I think). The problem is the right to left writing
which hwill require that all the screen layouts be changed. If your
software has no provisions for this then I think that it is a major
undertaking.

The character set for DOS Hebrew uses normal ASCII with the high bit set.
The ISO standard that covers Hebrew is ISO8859-8. There are three types of
Hebrew encoding in use. ISO (Internet), IBM, and DOS (known as old DOS).
There are documents on the net about this. As I said, the major major
problem is right to left writing, just as long as your software supports 8
bit clean ASCII.
