I've no experience in typesetting Sanskrit either, however, Google pointed me 
to this site that seems to have some basic information:
http://www.anu.edu.au/asianstudies/ahcen/coseru/unicode/

Seems that you'll need Omega (or its successor, Aleph) and the utf-skt package 
to typeset Sanskrit in unicode-LaTeX. For non-unicode-LaTeX, there's the 
sankrit package (http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/language/sanskrit).

Also, you might have some luck with XeTeX (http://scripts.sil.org/xetex). 
Since it's developed by the SIL, I could imagine that Sanskrit is supported.

As Jean-Marc wrote, if you can provide us with some more information on what 
is needed to typeset Sanskrit, we can try and intergrate that natively.
