Yes, thanks. It is strange that the only page that clearly shows this visually is in English :) I find the lyx variant to be most intuitive. As I don't have time to look for the documentation when I need to add diacritics, it makes much sense for פתח to be on פ, for קמץ to be on ק, for חיריק to be on ח, and so on. If I don't remember the exact position of something, I do not have to err much before I find the right one. Compare that to the shift-number method... > It is missing some characters, though, notably RLM and LRM. Yup, these always confuse me. It would be great if someone writes up a simple page, in Hebrew, that explains that and shows it visually (both RLM/LRM and diacritics). It will also help non-technical people who use Linux desktops (for me this means - my wife, my kids, and my sister. I guess every second subscriber on this list has a couple of those installations too). --yuval
