Oh, me too. I also meant 862.

CP862 has only raster font. And when you switch to ansi CP1255 you can 
select Lucida Console, or Consolas. But both do not contain Hebrew 
characters. What a pity.

Now I see that OEM is still deep inside cmd.exe and its default 
terminal. They should have cleaned it up. And created appropriate fonts. 
If not for cmd.exe then certainly for PowerShell which never existed in 
the DOS time.
