Registering your program for Hebrew

You need only register a program once. After it is registered, a
program always opens in the language you specified, unless
you change the program’s name or re-register it in a different
language.

To register a program:

1. Open the Hebrew Language Register.

You’ll find the Hebrew Language Register in the Apple Extras
folder on the hard disk where you installed the kit.

2. Click the Register Application button.

A list of application programs and folders appears.

Choosing a Language for

Your Application Program

Now that your computer can work in more than one language, it
must have a way to determine which programs must be opened in
Hebrew.

The Hebrew Language Register program

Application programs contain a region code that tells your system
which language and font should be used for menus, dialog boxes,
help balloons, and other items. Some programs, however, contain
region codes that don’t specify the preferred language.

Suppose you open a Hebrew program whose region code does
not specify Hebrew. With your Hebrew Language Kit you can
work in the program, but you won’t be able to read the menus,
dialog boxes, or help balloons.

To remedy this problem, a Hebrew Language Register program is
supplied with your Hebrew Language Kit. You can use the Lan-
guage Register to “register” the programs you want to use in
Hebrew. You may not need to register all your Hebrew
programs—only those in which menus don’t appear correctly in
Hebrew.
