Makor2 can be used to typeset Hebrew with vowels or liturgical accents, Yiddish, documents prepared using ArabTeX Hebrew conventions, Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia, and Old Hebrew.

Makor uses an intuitive interface—that is, you type characters on the keyboard according to more-or-less what they sound like, and Makor renders them in proper Hebrew.
