%hletter1.tex.  Version 1.0.
%updated 5/15/91 by JMH

%Defines \aleph - \taf according to the standard Israeli fonts, with a
%variety of spelling options for the Hebrew letters.  Both ``\peh'' and
%``\pe'' are recognized, for example.  ``\fchaf'' is a Final Chaf; other
%final letters are similar.
%Capitalized letters are letters with a _dagesh_ (requires the file
%``dots.tex'').  So \Bet is \bet with a _dagesh_ in it.  You can put a
%_dagesh_ in any letter you want, although sometimes it's a little silly.
%(``\Aleph'' for example).
%Also defined are \vowelayin -- a non-descending \ayin for use with vowels,
%and \alephlamed, the ligature.  Most Israeli fonts do not contain these.

%Use of this material in a commercial venture of any sort requires
%permission from me.  Otherwise, you are free to use this for any
%legal, non-destructive purpose.  If you find this useful, a
%contribution to charity will be most appreciated.
