            Usage of Hebrew with the Hebrew  LaTeX

To work in LaTeX in Hebrew, copy the files:

    hebrew.sty           hebcal.sty          for Old Code;
or
    hebrew_newcode.sty   hebcal_newcode.sty  for New Code.

Hebrew is an option in latex ; you specify, for example,
\documentstyle[hebrew,......]{article}   %  In Old Code
\sethebrew
\begin{document}

or
\documentstyle[hebrew_newcode,......]{article}   %  In New Code
\sethebrew
\begin{document}

The availabe Hebrew fonts in LaTeX are:

  Jerusalem  --  called for short \jm
  TelAviv    --  called for short \ta
  DeadSea    --  called for short \ds
  OldJaffa   --  called for short \oj

  The Hebrew option in LaTeX uses these fonts.
  When you set hebrew mode (via \sethebrew)
  the following setting comes into effect:

  \jm replaces \rm   (The regular font)
  \ds replaces \bf   (boldface)
  \oj replaces \it   (italics)
  \ta replaces \tt   (typewriter)

This is done in the line
\def\tohebrew{\def\rm{\jm}\def\bf{\ds}\def\it{\oj}\def\tt{\ta}\jm}
(in hebrew.sty)

You can change the setting by changing this line in hebrew.sty
and/or in hebrew_newcode.sty .
