Hoi,
The MediaWiki developers are working on the advanced toolbos that is part of the usability initiative. At the moment there is support for several scripts ... but not for any of the scripts used in the Indic languages. This is a good moment to consider how your scripts can be supported..

This is where you can find the scripts currently supported in the "special characters" part of the beta part of this wiki. You may have to create yourself a profile and enable the advanced toolbox in the user preferences. NB also vector is the skin of choice..

Good one. This would help to get special characters (or difficult-to-type chars) inserted very easily.

For Telugu (te), you can find the characters here: http://prototype.wikimedia.org/en.wikipedia.org/User:Veeven/Telugu_Characters

Or, you can find the exact piece of code (see the attached file) that can be inserted in the EditToolbar.js file.

I've included all characters. Probably, we can limit only to difficult ones.

Thanks,
Veeven.
