Re: [ubuntu-in] Typing in Indian Languages
Thanks Rajiv. That was one big hindrance I was finding with BolNagri. Simple things sometimes look so complicated. :) Regards, Surender On 07/04/2011 08:18 PM, Rajiv Ranjan wrote: use right alt+ shift+e for ऐ and right alt+ shift+o for औ, i.e. you have to switch to level 3 (R alt+ is the default for doing so, you can change it to any other key combination as well by going to keyboard preferenceslayoutsoptions) more help here http://indlinux.org/wiki/index.php/BolNagri -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
Re: [ubuntu-in] need desktop search tool
Thanks for informing about Recoll. Till now I had been using deskbar-applet. It does a little bit of calculations as well and can be used to launch programs too. Never searched for Indic fonts though with it. Will try Recoll. While, we are on the topic of Indic Fonts, is there any text editor similar to Takhti (for Windows), where I can write in Hindi with Unicode fonts like Mangal and Raghu. I miss the ease of Takhti in Ubuntu. While there is obviously Google Transliteration, but needed an offline app. Regards, Surender On Wednesday 22 June 2011 08:46 PM, Swarup wrote: On Wed, 2011-06-22 at 19:35 +0530, Ramnarayan.K wrote: Hi Swarup, Conclusion: Recoll is a great desktop search tool, and especially the more so as it searches Indic Fonts perfectly.

Re: [ubuntu-in] Typing in Indian Languages
I installed some keyboard layouts and would prefer India Hindi Bolnagri, which is very similar to Takhti. Found it easy. Yet I cannot get to write for example Ainak/aidee or Aurat/aukhlee The keyboard layout shows E and O, assigned, but only allow to put the maatra rather than the akshar itself. Any help would be useful.

Re: [ubuntu-in] alternative to open office? (Sriranga(78yrsold))
I had it on Maverick and have it on Natty as well. There's a problem with it with 64-bit. It installs with 32-bit only.
