I think you're talking about plain TeX there, not XeTeX; Kannada TeX is quite bad in my opinion.

Re: [XeTeX] Fontspec mappings causing errors in ToC/chapter -headings in memoir class documents
It appears you already know how to type in Hindi using inscript keyboard. Then why using itrans package? The input method developed originally by Velthuis is faulty. Because of that before running TeX it has to be postprocessed - because he used many restricted characters for inputing hindi characters. In this respect the Telugu TeX and Kannada TeX (which is based on Telugu TeX) input methods are better as they do not use these characters. Venu Gopal I use OpenOffice 3.0!

[XeTeX] Fontspec mappings causing errors in ToC/chapter-headings in memoir class documents
Greetz.
I find that when a Roman-based fontspec mapping is used in a chapter title or a
ToC entry in a memoir document, it causes an error if the input text (not the
output) offends (Xe)TeX in some way; thus, `kR^ishhNaM vande jagadgurum.h'
(which should simply be rendered as कृष्णं वन्दे जगद्गुरुम्) causes a problem
because (Xe)TeX thinks `R^i' can only occur in math mode. Other input texts do
not seem to cause such a problem, and the same string also causes no problem
inside a chapter (only in chapter titles and ToC entries).
See the attached minimal example, which uses the xetex-itrans package from
CTAN, as well as the Code2000 and Latin Modern families of fonts. The file
should compile cleanly as given, but when the text enclosed inside the \eat{
... } is brought out by commenting out the macro invocation, the problem will
appear.
Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.
