hi, could u please confirm with details i know Mr. Ashok Mukhopadhyay - and will contact him if necessary the only solution for a standardised bangla font is unicode
and i believe, that these sort of "intelligent" word processors are the only solutions for word processing in bangla - they are extremely intuitive and require almost no learning/memorising - just apply logic however, making a font for that is no easy task - u have to do a lot of extra work for the yuktashars - u can't simply map them to a single key :( -iti- sdg On Tue, 2002-07-02 at 14:52, moumunna Raychaudhuri wrote: > *** News flashed that Sahitya Samsad along with three > other software groups is working on a word processor > of bangla with Asok Mukhpadhyay as main architecht. > Possibly it will be in Windows.
