I am, however, not surprised about the missing output. simon has only one way to simulate output and this is by simulating _keystrokes_. It can only send keys that it knows how to generate on a conventional keyboard. I taught him some tricks like á, à (dead keys) but apart from that, simon just doesn't know what the keys are composed of. In case of hebrew the thing gets _very_ tricky. As the keys should be generated with some alt-codes (I assume) that would take a HUGE matrix with all the codes in it. And I guess that matrix will be different on different keyboard setups... Maybe you could check if there is some sort of standard where all the alt-codes are defined and if they are the same accross different keyboard layouts and operating systems? Greetings, Peter Haha love the did-you-mean dialog!
