I have been thinking about the database conversion tool.

How about making a tool for conversion of Davar books?

And how about making texts to be UTF-8?

Wish to convert *.dbk to database? I think it should be no problem, fileformat is open (read davar.hlp) and you can do it, if you need that.

Mapping of Hebrew is according font HebrewUniversal. Unfortunatelly nonstandard, but this encoding worked on all windows (95-XP). I think convert texts to unicode is easy task (using lookup tables, e.g.). So, if you need that you can convert. Watch (c) informations - not all texts are public domain.
