Avigdor...

Thank you for your re-summation of the "Hebrew" scripts.
It is good to remind people now and then of the Aramaic 
origins of the square script.  (Incidentally, "official" 
scripts are usually square... )

I was answering NPL's question about the confusion resulting
from copyrighted *computer* font-names (why this one's called 
"Rashi" and that one's called something else) and Naveh's 
differentiation between "Hebrew" and "Jewish" scripts came
into mind... 

Sorry for any additional confusion,

Rochelle
