Fred, I think Konkani editor, similar to MS-word editor, with spell-check, grammar help, thesaurus, English to Konkani translator, will be a very useful tool to learn and write in Konkani. It will standardize the spellings and create new breed of writers.
Fred, can you throw light on the feasibility of producing a Konkani editor? Avelino Bastora/Kuwait _________ "Frederick Noronha wrote: Hi Darren: Don't take that seriously! We actually need thank the sources of such criticism. In my case, it tempted me to visit your simple (yet, probably effective) site. I think you'll guys are doing a good job. Don't bother too much about the finger-pointing about the Konkani used. In Goa too, there are some who will tell others that the language they've spoken for generations is wrong, incorrect, un-standardised, improper and somehow inferior. That you'll have worked on using the language is itself to be appreciated. Keep up your work!
