greg,

i was using a standard for the electronic encoding of hebrew, since we
can't get the fine points of hebrew orthography/pointing otherwise.

the vowels are
I, ", E, A, F, O, U

any type of dagesh is the period <.>

and the consonants are
) B G D H W X + Y K L M N S ( P C Q R $ (sin &) T

thus, the first words of genesis are:
B.:R")$IYT B.FRF) ):ELOHIYM

if you're interested in electronic encoding, you might look at
