<signature snipped> 

this won't help u. the hebrew letter that came out from the figlet are
NOT the meaning of the letters in english. for example,

"a" doesn't mean  |    |    | (this letter is called "shin" in hebrew) 
                  |    |    |
                  |____|____|

like the figlet outputed. in my keyboard, which is a hebrew-english
keyboard, the letter "shin" appears in the same key as the letter "a", and
the letter "shin" in hebrew means "sh" in english, so u c, the figlet
won't help.
what was the question anyway?!
