- File formats for Bible and font files.
-
- The Bible files are given here in archived form. The unarchive program is
- stored in the c: directory. Once unarchived, they are straight ASCII
- files that can be loaded into a word processor. They will not be
- meaningful unless viewed with the right-to-left Torah fonts, though. Pro
- Write will support the font except for the English left-to-right
- characters (see below).
-
- The Bible files contain two line types: English and Hebrew. The English
- lines use left-to-right characters, which in the Torah fonts are
- characters 129 through 154, plus 176 through 185 (numerals). These
- characters cannot be entered using the keyboard. The only English lines
- in the Bible files give the name of the book, "CHAPTER", and chapter
- number.
-
- Each Hebrew line starts with either a tab (character 9) or a series of
- large left-to-right spaces (character 226). The files on this disk use 2
- super-spaces. The program Resize can be used to change which or the
- number of characters that begin each Hebrew line. The Hebrew characters
- will not word wrap in a word processor, so the program Resize can also be
- used to change the number of characters on each Hebrew line.
-
- The definition of the actual letters used in the Torah font is given
- below (the attribution of traup--cantillation marks--is guesswork). The
- letters were assigned to the keyboard according to the standard Israeli
- typewriter layout. The vowels were assigned according to the layout used
- by the PC Hebrew word processor MegaWriter (except that alt characters
- represent macro sequences rather than individual characters in a font).
