In my Windows XP, I have four keyboard layouts proposed for the Urdu language: "Arabic (101)", "Arabic (102)", "Arabic (102) AZERTY" and "Urdu", plus the keyboards for the Brahmic/ISCII transliterations in India, and the Tavulesoft "Urdu" keyboard layout, all of which can be added simultaneously to the language bar are selected from there. Isn't that enough? I don't see where is the issue there. May be it's only for Windows 2000 (and of course Windows 9x/ME which does not support easily multiple layouts, and where Tavulesoft Keyman is probably a good solution).
