There are two common ways of entering Nepali text: - As Unicode, which uses the standard Devanagari codepoints to represent the text directly. - As Latin characters, using a specially-crafted font to make those characters appear as Devanagari. This bug is an enhancement request to add direct i18npool support for the latter use case without conversion. To work around this missing feature, users can currently get correct line breaking by instead using Unicode. This may be done by converting existing text with a Preeti to Unicode converter, or by entering new text directly as Unicode using a Preeti keyboard layout. Prior to implementing this enhancement, we should conduct some research into approaches taken by other programs to handle this use case. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
