Great. Yes, I see it works very well. Thank you very much. Does anyone have any suggestion regarding the second matter I raised? I am posting it just below, should anyone need to see it again. Swarup ------------------------ 2. Baraha has a memory window in which during 7 seconds or so after typing any given letter, it maintains that letter in its active capacity. That is to say, if one has typed a joint consonant (such as ष्ट) or if one has typed a consonant with matra (such as मे) and made a mistake in the latter part of the character, then one has 7 seconds in which the computer will continue to see the first part as a unit which can be added to. So there will be no need to delete the entire character. For example, if one typed मे but meant to type मि then one can just backspace once and redo the matra. There is no need to backspace twice to delete the म and start the character from the beginning. Over the course of a full document, this is quite time-saving and quite practical. In our SCIM baraha, whenever one makes an error in the midst of such a combined character, one has to delete the entire character and start again. And sometimes these characters involve 4 or 5 keystrokes. I do not know whether there may be some way to incorporate this feature into the SCIM Baraha set-up. If there is a way to do it, that would be great. -- ubuntu-in mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
