I will have to locate a better one I guess, this one in English shows
n and n for n and m and things like that (anyway, off the list you can
see that one)

Thomas Sending it off the list.

Thomas In that case, you have the actual table, I don't. :-(

Thomas Is that the Chula switcher you sent to me? Sorry, I haven't tried it
Thomas yet.
yes, that will happily switch you but you get a headache from the ABC.
I will ask a friend to dig through his system, we rebuild it last
night with me on the phone(g), and as the switcher is small to get rid
of it, use the 3 fingers...

Thomas You sent the jpg file also "on" the list... anyway, I agree, it is not
Thomas beautiful at all. I have some more fonts, but I think they are not
Thomas monospaced and thus TB does not show them. So they won't help.
no problem, there are hundreds of fonts around here, so it shouldnt be
that difficult to find one and if necessary I just combine the english
part of one back into this Thai font...

You need a Thai driver. I have never worked with X-LAT tables, though.
Thai drivers come with Thai Windows. If you have stripped Thai out of

To what conversion tables to you refer, Tracer? I don't see it.

 1. IS Thai setup?
 2. If not, CAN it be setup and how?
 3. How complex to select from ALL fonts in the control panel?

I'll anxiously await the answers, with you.

probably the wrong choice of words as under Thai windows it may do the

Keith To what conversion tables to you refer, Tracer? I don't see it.
Xlat allows Thai to be added, AND one can select it after restart but
as there isnt a suitable font under English windows

I think it requires a font to be selected with Thai after which the
table can do its work. Or one uses under standard settings the Chula
switcher.  I expect the last to work better!
