Yes, there are CS (classical sanskrit), CSX (CS eXtended) and now CSX+
8-bit character sets for transliteration of Indic languages. CSX+
covers all the essential characters needed for ISO 15919, the draft
standard for transliteration of Indian languages.

Find attached a mapping file for CSX I wrote to convert a Pali
dictionary to Unicode (with perl's Unicode::Map module).
Contact Dr. Jhon D. Smith for further info:
