I have used a hebrew language word processor that does everything you're
looking for. It is the hebrew language version of EinsteinWriter (I forget who
the publisher is). The best hebrew character set I have seen for the PC family
is accessed by changing the character set rom with one that includes hebrew as
an alternate character set. I haven't seen them for sale in the U.S. but they
are easily purchased in Israel (oh well |-).
