Removing Vowels from Hebrew Unicode Text
/*
* One of the questions that recently came up is how to remove vowels from Hebrew characters in Unicode
* (or any other similar language). A quick look at Hebrew Unicode chart shows that the vowels are all
* located between 0x0591 (1425) and 0x05C7 (1479). With this and Javascript's charCodeAt function, it
* is trivial to strip them out with Javascript as follows
*
* Live demo is available here:
