quail, hebrew, gtk coding question

Hello In my opinion Jeff's work on xemacs-gtk is a big leap towards BIDI support. So far I have written hebrew via KDE keyboard layout, but of course this is not a solution, since all the Control commands are then lost. So I thought of providing a hebrew input method, in fact several different layouts, standard layout, layout with niqud (vowels), phonetic layout. The question is: in which coding should I save the file: - iso-8859-8 - UTF-8 - iso-2022-7bit. The first option would rule out niqud. I am not sure between two and three. GNU emacs uses iso-2022-7bit, which is not compatible with "our" iso-2022-7bit, at least when I open their hebrew.el (quail file). I don't see hebrew letters. When I use GNU emacs save the file with UTF8 and open it with xemacs (21.5.33 Mule) I see the hebrew letters correctly displayed. Which makes me vote for UFT8. Any comments??
