[Israel.pm] Hebrew recoding (was: No subject)

[Eli Billauer]

Hello,

I would suggest the following steps:

1. Make sure that you have a fairly updated version of Perl, which has 
the Encode module. In other words,

perl -e "use Encode;"

should do nothing (in particular, not complain that the module wasn't found)

2. Decide what you want to do: What the source coding is (UTF-8?) and 
the destination (windows-1255?)

3. Do "man Encode" to read the manual page for the module. It pretty 
much explains everything.

Good luck,
    Eli
