@jwalanta Yes dai..I also found \usepackage{devanagari} really tedious.
This link --- http://tex.loria.fr/fontes/devanagari.ps.gz ---- contains
the character set to be typed in to get the corresponding devanagari
character. But I felt its lack of flexibility.
I am still confused about how " े " will be displayed with {\dn e} .Similar
confusion with " ा " .
Anyway, just as a reference I would like to note down the steps I carried
out to get my task running.

1. Went to Synaptic Package Manager (OS is Lenny)
2. installed texlive-latex-base , texlive-lang-indic ,
texlive-fonts-recommended
3. In the text editor
a. included \usepackage{devanagari}
b. {\dn x} syntax used for including character set 'x'
c. saved the file with "*.dn" extension say "sample.dn"
4.In terminal ran
a. devnag sample.dn
which gave the corresponding tex file "sample.tex"
b. pdflatex sample.tex
which gave the pdf file "sample.pdf"
