Hebrew Keyboard layout as in OS X


Eleuterio

Recommended Posts

I found a similar suggestion for Greek, but not for Hebrew, so here we go:

 

I work with Biblical Hebrew, so when I have to type in Hebrew in other Mac applications I use Mac OS X Hebrew QWERTY Keyboard Layout, which is much more intuitive than the Israeli one (for those who work with Qwerty keyboard, of course). Now, when I switch to Accordance I see I have two possibilities: Israeli KL or Accordance KL, which is more transliteration-oriented (but some letters like 'ayin, shin, etc. are not so obvious). So I have to switch mentally all the time.

 

Suggestion: Another possibility in Preferences like "use Hebrew QWERTY keyboard layout".

 

OR:

 

Does anybody know how to build up a new Hebrew KL for Mac which can follow the Accordance Hebrew KL?

 

OR

 

Has anybody found another solution? :huh:

 

Thank you

I can suggest the free keyboard layout tool "Ukelele" provided by SIL:

I've succesfully used it to create custom layouts. You should be able to modify an existing Hebrew layout and swap around the keys to match the Accordance layout...

Hi JPKang,

 

I know this is a dead thread. But I did a search for hebrew keyboard layouts and this came up.

 

I was thinking about using Ukelele. But, if you have a keyboard layout already made with Accordance key strokes, would you be willing to share?
