Michael,
I am aware of and have shown Tamil and Oriya dandas being
very different from those of Devanagari. Also, Kaithi, Kharoshthi, Siddham
and Kannada are different as well from those of Devanagari.
Can you or some one else give me a link to
see the Bengali dandas? From what I read, they aren't
the same as Devanagari.
Thanks,
N. Ganesan
