Folk,
Thanks, I'll check it out.
I got another question according to the Hindi rendering rule in Unicode 2.0
book on page 6-38 to 6-44. Except, RA, VIRAMA and other vowels, if there
are one or more of sequences of LIVE consonants, the presentation forms
of those consonants won't be changed (ligatured) at all, correct ?
(unless you got to make some of them being DEAD consonants first)
