For your information: I've used SCIM for typing in Tamil and currently use IBUS. Both
work very well for typing in Tamil.
They support various key mappings for each language. I think they're available for
most of the languages.

"That language is an instrument of human reason, and not merely a medium for the
expression of thought, is a truth generally admitted."

Subject: [Wikimediaindia-l] a linux input method available for many Indic scripts
Hoi,
I blogged about the Indic Online
Keyboard;
http://ultimategerardm.blogspot.com/2010/06/linux-provides-input-methods-fo… it
supports many Indic scripts. I do not know if you know it and I do not know its quality.
What I do know is that it is open source and free. Is someone interested in looking into
this tool and write a review. I am quite happy to host you as a guest blogger. I am also
happy to blog and refer to another blog.
Thanks,
GerardM
