Actually, that's why I changed the name as all entries but the Hebrew
letters were empty in the shaping table. I thought of adding entries
for the Hebrew standard SI 1311-1 as described in 
http://www.qsm.co.il/NewHebrew/ab1.htm . But since no font is currently
using it, and if creating new fonts it makes a lot more sense to use
iso-10646, I guess there is no point.

I made some additional changes to the shaper last night, and I hope to 
send them to the list tonight.

Something else, a question that has been on my mind for a while. What 
is the relation if any of pango to printing? Are the FreeType modules
going to be used for that?

Dov
