Hi Jitendra. It would be very cool to have a Marathi translation for AbiWord! The problem you have is that you don't have a Hindi or Devanagari keyboard set up. I'm guessing that you are using Linux. If you were using Windows 2000 or Windows XP you can choose a keyboard for Hindi and maybe even Marathi and AbiWord will mostly work. There will probably be problems with ligatures and maybe lines will be refreshed differently to how they look as they are typed. Now if you are using Linux you will have to locate a Hindi/Marathi/Devanagari/Sanskrit keymap for X. I think there is a project called "Inscript" around that deals with this. I don't believe such keymaps are included with the current common Linux distros. Please search around on the internet and let us know what success you have so we can include it in our documentation. Good luck! Andrew. ===== http://linguaphile.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/translator.pl http://www.abisource.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
