Hoi, You create a profile, under editing in the Preferences you select "Special toolbox". You enter the beta part of this environment. The Special characters is for people like myself who occaisonally need to enter something in another script. I do not have a keyboard available in your script, I could install it but I would not know where the characters are. Thanks, GerardM 2009/8/1 arjuna rao chavala <arjunaraoc(a)googlemail.com>

Dear Gerard, I tried the beta and the advanced editing bar. It's definitely a better experience and is a step in the right direction. Keeping this minimal and optionally expandable interface, if you can add the more commonly used options of the wikEd plugin, this would become most useful. I appreciate the immediate response from Veeven giving the code to include Telugu script. I'll see if I can get the Tamil script also similarly. While we are at it, it would be further useful to consider a javascript input method editor for Tamil as well. As one types the phonetic spelling or any other scheme, we should replace it with the corresponding unicode. There's a sample implementation at http://ta.wikipedia.org/wiki/பயனர்:Santhoshguru/தமிழில்_எழுத_உதவும்_செயலி If there's support, we can get any remnant issues in that fixed and add it to the betawiki.

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_Characte… 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. -- Read Telugu blogs @ koodali.org
