The

Hebrew code page. It is derived from, but does not conform to, ISO/IEC 646; more specifically, it follows ASCII except for the lowercase letters and backtick (`), which are replaced by the naturally ordered Hebrew alphabet. It is also known as DEC Hebrew (7–bit), because DEC standardized this character set before it became an international standard.[1] Kermit named it hebrew–7 and HEBREW–7.[2][3]

The Hebrew alphabet is mapped to positions 0x60–0x7A, on top of the lowercase Latin letters (and grave accent for aleph). 7–bit Hebrew is stored in visual order.

This mapping with the high bit set, i.e. with the Hebrew letters in 0xE0–0xFA, is also reflected in

ISO 8859-8
