If Hindi is detected flawlessly, it should work similarly with Nepali.
Except for the dictionary, as I mentioned above. Nepali dictionary is definitely different from Hindi dictionary. The difference would probably be reflected in the accuracy and/or speed. AFAIK, the dictionary is instrumental in the algorithms. (Someone, correct me if I'm wrong.) The above, of course, would beg the question: Can you just swap out the dictionary component of traineddata? I am assuming one can.

Just out of curiosity -- what bearing does this have on Sanskrit? Are there certain Sanskrit glyphs that are missing from the current tesseract Hindi set?
