Unlike the previous versions there, it does not include the READMEs, and
thus it is smaller.
I have also removed hebtech (hebtech.dtx in the source, hebtech.cls which
is created). It does not belong in babel. I moved it to a separate package
I want to start (hebclass , in the ivritex CVS).
I also made a recent change to make it easier to use the encoding HE8.
I added two macros:
\HeblatexEncodingHE8
\HeblatexEncodingLHE
Each of those simply sets \hebrewencoding and \input-s {lhe|he8}enc.def.
That force the Hebrew encoding to be HE8 or LHE (respectively). The
default remains LHE.
It would have been ideal to pass this as some parameter to rlbabel. But I
can't figure out a simple way to do that: I can't simply pass an extra
parameter to babel. I can create an extra package, but then the user will
have to load it *before* babel, and I hate creating such dependencies.
I would like know if there is better way than what I currently do.
