I'm not entirely sure what you are looking for, but NetTerm (for windows,
both 16 bit and 32 bit) will allow you to use any font you want, and remap
the keyboard to anything you want. For instance, if I telnet in to my
Unix account (the one I'm mailing from now, a SunOS 4.1.3 machine), using
a font that has the hebrew letters in right slots, and someone sends me
hebrew mail, I can read it fine. Also, using something like hebrew_pine,
I can send hebrew mail (this program takes care of the keyboard
translation for me). What exactly is it that you need your users to do in
Hebrew? What can you assume about their setup?
