שלום‮--שָׁלוֹם

The‭niqqudim‭can‭usually‭be‭operated‭by‭pressing‭one‭of‭the‭numbers‭(1-0,
top‭row‭ and‭another‭key‭ On‭my‭Mac‭that‭s‭the‭option‭key‭for‭the‭most
common‭niqqudim‭ a‭few‭work‭with‭the‭shift‭key‭ For‭some‭niqqudim‭I‭need‭a
third‭key‭(mostly‭the‭command‭key‭.

‭ Dora‭ you‭appear‭to‭have‭Unicode‭Hebrew‭working‭ Congratulations‭ How
‭ did‭you‭do‭that‭ i‭e‭ which‭program‭and‭keyboard‭
‭ 
‭ Fonts‭and‭keyboards‭are‭quite‭independent‭ So‭if‭you‭can‭display‭Ezra
‭ SIL‭with‭niqqud‭ you‭can‭use‭any‭keyboard‭which‭generates‭niqqud‭ The
‭ ones‭which‭come‭with‭Ezra‭SIL‭do‭this‭only‭with‭a‭phonetic‭layout‭ It
‭ sounds‭as‭if‭you‭want‭to‭use‭more‭like‭the‭Israeli‭standard‭layout‭ If
‭ so‭ you‭need‭to‭find‭a‭keyboard‭driver‭which‭generates‭niqqud‭and‭uses
‭ this‭layout‭ The‭Microsoft‭Israeli‭keyboard‭does‭this‭ but‭it‭uses
‭ obscure‭and‭difficult‭key‭combinations‭for‭niqqud‭ Perhaps‭someone‭else
‭ can‭tell‭you‭how‭to‭access‭these‭ or‭suggest‭to‭you‭a‭suitable‭keyboard‭
