Hello gang,

I had to replace my hard drive earlier this year.  Since then, the  
following sample file stopped working properly (Hebrew characters are  
not in output):

<code>
\documentclass{article}

  \usepackage{ucs}                    % Unicode
  \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}        % Input in Unicode
  \usepackage[hebrew,english]{babel}  % Hebrew

\begin{document}

Hebrew\dotfill
\R{עברית}

\end{document}
</code>

The following is the error message:

I have tried a *clean* install of the entire TeX distribution, but this  
hasn't helped.  Additionally, Finder.app does not find ``jerus'' and  
typing ``locate jerus'' under Terminal.app returns:
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/tex4ht/ht-fonts/iso8859/8/hebrew/ 
jerus.htf
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/tex4ht/ht-fonts/unicode/hebrew/ 
jerus.htf

Would appreciate any help.
Thanks,
  Ben
