Re: Devawriter Pro
No I havenn’t started it yet ....
I will translate as I learn .. might do it as “the Black Country Bhagavad Gita”
“Yowm Betta livin ya on lahf rubbish like,than livin an ova
mons lahf pairfect”
Original
“It is better to live your own destiny imperfectly than to live an imitation of somebody else's life with perfection.”
This is the 10 commandment in Black Country lingo
GOD’S BOSTIN’ RULES:
1. “Ar bin the Lord yaar God, yow cor ave ova daft un’s befower me”
2. “Dow put stuff befower God”
3. “Yow cor tek the naame o’ the Lord yaah God in vain”
4. “Git yaself to Sunday meeting ay it”
5. “Honor ya dad un ya mom”
6. “Yow cor kill con ya”
7. “Yow woe av it off with sumone elses missus/bloke”
8. “No pinchin’”
9. “Dow mek out ya muckers dun it”
10. “Dow get jealous of ya maates stuff”

Re: Devawriter Pro
Unfortunately for you Lagi, I can't be bothered by your facile jokes.
8 years on hard slog with scant reward does not lend one to finding that sort of thing funny: apart from the fact that my translation work on Bhagaved Gita is based on the fact that I taught myself Sanskrit while working on a farm.
I find many things funny: but I never mock hard work or its results.

How you thought I was mocking your work beats me.
I’ll leave it at that.

Re: Devawriter Pro
I am extremely grateful that the monks at Hawaii's Hindu monastery via the good offices of Brahmanathaswami have given a significant donation for the continued development of Devawriter Pro.

Re: Devawriter Pro
Wow: it has been quite a time (well, about 5 months) when I was feeling very sluggish and demotivated re
Devawriter Pro for all sorts of reasons.
Anyway; the flowers are coming out in my part of the world (Bulgaria), and there's a generally positive feeling round and about
(even if the government here, as usual, cocked things up badly re Corona virus), so, pulled myself together and did a whole
slew of bug fixing . . .

Re: Devawriter Pro
Owing to the nature of Indian Abugida writing systems and the tendency for their component consonantals to form
conjunct consonants, computers and the Unicode consortium have been slow in catching up, and, mainly resort
to the use of halantam characters to represent conjunct consonants; which, while being functional
rather miss the point of Indic writing systems.
However, my Devawriter Pro (available, cross-platform, for Linux, Windows and Macintosh) leverages a font that stores
a complete lexicon of conjunct consonants both for the Devanagari and the Grantha scripts to prepare and export
fully conjunct consonant texts in Sanskrit and other Indic languages.
