Hello,
How can I get a copy of ISCII 91 ? Is it available on the net ?
I feel, RRA(h) (ta - last character I pointed out as missing) can not
be considered as a conjuct of RA because its pronunciation
is totally different. Only form-wise, it looks like one big RA over
small RA.
More over, among the symbols, one particular symbol called
"prasLe'sham" whose glyph is almost like an open integral sign and
pronunciation like 'sau' is not included. This symbol is more often
used than the symbol for half (1/2) or vocalic L. But I have not
mentioned about this in my earlier comments.
-Regards,
Cibu
