SI 960

The Israeli Standards Institute's Standard SI 960 defines a 7-bit Hebrew code page derived from but not related to ISO/IEC 646. It is also known as DEC Hebrew (7-bit), because DEC standardized this character set before it became an international standard.[1] Kermit named it hebrew-7 and HEBREW-7.[2][3]

The Hebrew alphabet is mapped to positions 0x60–0x7A, on top of the lowercase Latin letters (and grave accent for aleph). 7-bit Hebrew is stored in visual order.

This mapping with the high bit set, i.e. with the Hebrew letters in 0xE0–0xFA, is also reflected in ISO 8859-8.
