Nice to see it in lohit devanagari . What about Indian English ?
Should we have Indian english keyboards with rupee symbol ?
are there fonts which support en_IN ?

Hi,

Today in The Times of India it was published that a company has made a
font for the new Rupee symbol in .ttf format. The link is:
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Heres-how-to-download-new-rupee-symbol-for-free/articleshow/6182289.cms

Then I read Gaurav Paliwal's article on how to use the  same on
Linux:http://bit.ly/cnWYQO

I searched wikipedia & found ttf is a proprietary format. Lets create
a font using FreeType2 or other open format. We can use SVG to
generate the vector image. There is a web based editor SVGedit:
code.google.com/p/svg-edit
or search SVGedit on Wikipedia.

Regards,
Aveek
