But in that confusion there is a letter from the Head of the Macintosh
division at Microsoft ???

From Word 4 to Office X, Office never supported Hebrew and Worldscript,
and I don't know of any application (not Nisus for example) wich is able
to input te'amim (I would like to), Te'amim was theorically encoded in
the MacOs encoding but there was not Worldscript font with (even the
Apple fonts), so...

PS No te'amim except for a SIL font, which was working with Quickdraw GX,
but the encoding was not standard ! What do you think of an Unicode
(maybe Opentype) version of that font ?
