The following is a correct version of figlets Jerusalem font with its
104-Keyboard equivalent.

All the Hebrew letters are listed. Note there are no Hebrew vowels here.
The sounds are listed under the name of the Hebrew letter.

If you have questions, please write to me. I have been stdying Hebrew for
many years.

B'shalom,
Peri

one last thing I forgot.

Figlet does not switch directions for reading.... so if you use the
program, make sure you type YOUR letters in backwards, so it come out
correct in Hebrew.

You can always try a search in Yahoo, altavista, etc. I used a web
interface for all the info I posted. You can find it at

I'd like to know where to get the Jerusalem font.  I didn't see it on the
web site.
