-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bonjour,
I just discovered that babel is working well with sanskrit! Only one file is missing: sanskrit.ldf. I made an (ugly) hack of english.ldf and any text after \selectlanguage{sanskrit} is correctly hyphenated (both scripts: roman tranliteration and devanagari). Questions 1- Will it be possible to have an "official" sanskrit.ldf, correctly adapted to sanskrit? 2- As the file hyph-sa.tex which gives the hyphenation patterns can be used for many scripts: roman, devanagari, bengali, kannada.... Is it possible to build only one sankrit.ldf file for all these scripts? 3- Is it possible to include in this file some commands like \catcode`\~=12 which is necessary to use Velthuis-sanskrit mapping? Of course this change to the catcode should be active only in Sanskrit texts! BTW with this change to the catcode of "~", hard space is lost; is it possible to have another character usable as hard space in Velthuis Sanskrit texts? 4- Writing a Devanagari text using Velthuis mapping or RomDev mapping produces a very compact text and a change to the baseline skip should be necessary (scaled to 1.25 at least...); is this change can be include somewhere or is there something to change in the font itself?
