Attached Perl program will convert Devnagari to phonetic Hindi, similar 
to ITRANS.  Would appreciate if whoever uses it sends feedback so I can 
improve it.

Incidentally, can someone check why the f in farsi at:

https://hi.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%A4%B9%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%A8%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%A6%E0%A5%80

isn't the standard 0x092B + 0x093C (फ़)?  I don't know if I've got the 
characters right, but there's some fsckup in translating the f's there.  
Comment out lines 277 through 285 of the code and run that page to see 
what happens.
