@bebraw Hebrew support would be so helpful! I'm willing to help to make it happen. 🇮🇱

@MarcusSterz Note @xshapira's offer. If I understood correctly, it's about 22 new characters to support and maybe some other ones. Here's a full list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_and_HTML_for_the_Hebrew_alphabet .

@bebraw There are 22 basic Hebrew letters and 3 final letter forms: final Kaf (U+05DA), final Mem (U+05DD), and final Nun (U+05DF). In addition, there are 4 Hebrew-specific punctuation marks.

Below is a table to summarize it:

Category Characters Code Points
Basic Hebrew Letters 22 U+05D0 to U+05EA
Final Letter Forms 3 U+05DA, U+05DD, U+05DF
Punctuation Marks 4 U+05BE, U+05C0, U+05C3, U+05F3, U+05F4
Total 29

@bebraw @MarcusSterz Is there a timeline for when you'll be adding support for Hebrew? Just wanted to remind you that I'm happy to offer my help if needed.
