mkisofs and hebrew filenames



Hi IGLUers,

I was wondering if anyone here has succeeded in burning CD-Rs with
Hebrew filenames on them, that are readable on that other OS.
Normally, mkisofs (with the -J option to create Joliet directories)
barfs on Hebrew filenames. When adding the option '-jcharset cp862', the
Windows Hebrew filenames are recognized OK, but they are reversed.
This means it's not a charset problem, but probably a bidi problem. I
suspect that the Joliet filenames somehow aren't processed by the
Windows Bidi algorithm in the same way as 'regular' filenames.
Does anyone have experience with this? Is hacking mkisofs to use a bidi
algorithm for the filenames the correct way to solve this?

Regards,

Gavrie.
