Friends.

Al Last, after a strange struggle,
Hari, Parimala and their team successfully designed
a keyboard layuout for tamil as old typewriter layout.

Wow. This is great contributuion to tamil.

Tomorrow, i am going to ELCOT and will install it.

Here is the mail by hari to me.

hi Shrini,

Pl. see :
http://nrcfosshelpline.in/code/wiki/TamilRemingtonLayout

for instructions on installing Tamil remington on scim.
Sorry, I need to rush. Could'nt write the steps I did for
creating the scim tables. Essentially followed the steps
at :
http://www.scim-im.org/development/contribute/how_to_create_a_new_ime_in_about_15_minutes_with_scim_and_scim_tables
and used a modified form of the file I sent you yeterday.


-------------------------------------------------------------------


Hats off to the team.

This proves the power of open source and the community.
If there is no way, we would create our own.

Thanks for all wishers and contributors.

dear,
T.Shrinivasan.
