Yes. It's called "type". Take a Hebrew text stored in a Windows 1255 encoded file, and "type file", see what happens. The order, if I understand this correctly, will be logical.
The Windows 7 console does not even support displaying the Hebrew characters. My understanding is that this is because the only fonts it lets you pick are lacking the required characters.
