About a month ago I posted a request for information about Hebrew word
processors for the Macintosh. The response was quite overwhelming.

I would like to thank everyone who replied. I will be sending out personal
"thank you"s soon.

I am almost ready to post a summary, but I lack the following:


     1. A U.S. address for a distributor of "Rav-K'tav", if there is one.

     2. Information on the Hebrew Version of Nissus. 

     3. Any information on Wintext. 


Thanks again.

Highlights of my summary:

1. There is a Hebrew version of the Macintosh System complete with Hebrew
   fonts, right to left and left to right typing etc.

2. Word processors in Hebrew.

3. "Cheap" keyboards.

and lots of other useful stuff :-)
