[net.micro.mac] MacInHebrew

I have been trying to use the shareware hebrew processor MacInHebrew
(downloaded from Macserve at bitnic) and have been encountering problems:
specifically, it does not work; when I use a font with both hebrew and
english it types the hebrew incorrectly from left to right, but if
I use one of the hebrew only fonts it goes from right to left correctly.
Since one of the most desireable features of MacInHebrew was its convenience
in switching from hebrew to english by merely hitting the caps lock key,
MacinHebrew is much less usefull. I have checked the FDCT resources
and their ids match, but the contents the one for each font is the same(00 00
03, I think) but I have the impression from the manual that this is ok. I am
using Mac+s and 512e's and system 3.1.1.
 
If anyone could mail or post something about this I would
really appreciate it, as the author only will answer snail-mail
