I don't want English at all. I don't want to mix English and Hebrew.  I
just wnat a buffer with Hebrew and nothing else.

The input table says type 'S' to get some hebrew char.  If I type that
char, I don't get hebrew.  But if I type lowercase 's', then I get the
required hebrew char.

So, FIX THE HELP TEXT IN INPUT TABLE so that it replaces 'S' with 's'
(likewise for other chars) or UPCASE THE INPUT CHAR before transcoding
it.
