Further update. The FreeBSD handbook has switched to DocBook5 for its build. https://svnweb.freebsd.org/doc/release/11.1.0/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/book.xml?view=markup I believe it makes more sense to change the build to use DocBook5 instead of continuing with the older version. Let me know if any of you disagree. Quite likely the first patch would be a switch to the new DocBook with a working build, without any functional changes to the handbook content. Currently attempting to get book/faq work which is one of the smaller builds. 2017-11-25 14:13 GMT+05:30 Alok Kumar | आलोक कुमार < alo...@us...>: > Hello list > > This is to let you know that I am restarting work on the Indic Computing > Handbook. > I have progressed with the development environment and currently resolving > build issues: > > https://sourceforge.net/p/openjade/mailman/message/36135932/ > > Hope to submit a patch to the devanagari section of the Handbook in five > days time. > > Regards > आलोक > > -- > Can't see Hindi? http://devanaagarii.net > -- Can't see Hindi? http://devanaagarii.net |

Hi folks, One of my friends is developing web-pages (on a voluntary basis) for ILO (International Labour Organization); he had done them in English and is looking for help in doing them in Kannada. If one of you can do it or know someone who can do it (php/mysql knowledge would be needed in addition to Englist->Kannada translation skills and content development skills), pls let me know immediately. This is most probably a voluntary job. TIA cheers, Nagarajan ____________________________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

CNET News.com Google throws bodies at OpenOffice By Stephen Shankland http://news.com.com/Google+throws+bodies+at+OpenOffice/2100-7344_3-5920762.html Google plans to hire programmers to improve OpenOffice.org, a demonstration of its affinity for open source initiatives and one the company believes also shows sound practical sense. OpenOffice has its roots in Sun Microsystems' StarOffice suite of programs. Five years ago, Sun turned its proprietary software into an open-source project. Only recently, however, has the competitor to Microsoft's Office attracted serious attention. Now Google believes it can help OpenOffice--perhaps working to pare down the software's memory requirements or its mammoth 80MB download size, said Chris DiBona, manager for open-source programs at the search company. .........

Hi, I am currently working on a multi-language app as part of a college research project. I was wondering if anybody has done any research or has any suggestions on how to do sorting / collating(ordering) of Indic languages. Is there any source from where I can get default collating orders for different scripts? Looking forward to hearing from someone.

The IIT-Madras Multilingual editor has a perl module that does this. Prof Kalyana Krishnan has released the full sources for everything (including the multi linugal editor) under the GPL. work has begun at http://imli.sf.net We have a linguist on the team working with him full time to sort out the nitty gritties. There's also a version that speaks out the content (developed for the blind).

Dear Krishnamurthy Nagarajan We at janabhaaratii feel indebted to the pioneering start your efforts (indic computing develpers team in general and some of you named in email addresses here in particular) in indic computing. Under the C-DAC project janabhaaratii,funded by TDIL we wish to take this forward in colaboration and fully sharing mode. Your suggestion and ideas will be most appreciated. Kindly do give us your current coordinates(address/phones/afiliations etc.) so whenever we wish we can contact you and even invite you. Hence please also keep us informed on your current project. On our side we intend to work exclusively on GPL/LGPL software and will put up our contributions/compilations on our project website for 'free' access. Since we have just stated the project last month, our project website is under constution. But our mission statement is on our corporate website. www.cdacindia.com regards jitendra Quoting Krishnamurthy Nagarajan <kn...@ya...>: > > ----- Original message from Krishnamurthy Nagarajan <kn...@ya...> ----- > Date: Fri, 26 Nov 2004 02:08:57 -0800 (PST) > From: Krishnamurthy Nagarajan <kn...@ya...> > Reply-To: Krishnamurthy Nagarajan <kn...@ya...> > Subject: Re: [Indic-computing-devel] Regexp and Indian languages ? > To: Arun Sharma <ar...@sh...>, > ind...@li... > > Hi Arun, > > Perhaps you could take a look at the generic > transliteration library for Indian languages that I > developed quite sometime back.

Hi Arun, Perhaps you could take a look at the generic transliteration library for Indian languages that I developed quite sometime back. It's on sourceforge at http://indic-computing.sourceforge.net/projects/miscellaneous.html (under 'Other infrastructural projects', as 'translib') I had come up with some kind of regular expression syntax to express the syllables in Indian words. I developed sample transliteration rules for four languages (Hindi, Telugu, Kannada and Tamil). A snippet from the ruleset for Hindi, just to raise your curiosity : ^%vowel glyph(%vowel) _%vowel glyph(%vowel) r%cons%vowel translit(%2,%vowel) HALF_R_POST (%cons)a translit(%1,a) (%cons)(A|aa) translit(%1,a) VOWEL_SIGN_AA %cons%vowel translit(%1,a) dep_vowel_sign(%vowel) %cons%cons%vowel dep_cons_sign(%1) translit(%2,%3) ..... (^ is used by me to denote beginning of word, $ for end of word, _ for forced ZWNJ etc) Here, the LHS corresponds to a subset of a word (a syllable, usually) and the RHS denotes the action, to output the glyphs or other actions (including recursive call to the main transliteration function translit()). One or more such sub-expressions would constitute an input word. btw, I didn't use the regular Unix regexp syntax. With the framework and syntax I developed, it's quite feasible to write a regexp parser for Indian languages (transliterated using US-English or even direct UTF-8 or other forms) using such rules. I hope my answer is relevant to your question. cheers, Nagarajan Indic-computing project --- Arun Sharma <ar...@sh...> wrote: > So I was thinking about how one would go about using > regular expressions > with an Indian language while I was brushing my > teeth this morning. > > The current syntax seems to be "character" oriented. > For eg, f.o matches foo. > However, if I want to write a regexp such as: > > su . la . > > that matches > > su bbu la xmi > > we need to introduce a new concept of a syllable > into the regexp > syntax.

So I was thinking about how one would go about using regular expressions with an Indian language while I was brushing my teeth this morning. The current syntax seems to be "character" oriented. For eg, f.o matches foo. However, if I want to write a regexp such as: su . la . that matches su bbu la xmi we need to introduce a new concept of a syllable into the regexp syntax. For eg: "_" might mean one syllable as opposed to "." which means one character. In other words "su_la_" would match subbulaxmi. This simple minded proposal would mean that the zillions of existing regexps which use "_" without suspecting it to be a special character would be broken. This might be a good undergrad project for the linguistically inclined (and hence the crosspost to Linux and BSD mailing lists which often get such queries). If there is existing literature on this topic, I'd love to find out more. -Arun |

Hai My working environment is Redhat 9, Qt(version 3.3) and Aspell(version 6). I am having one tamil document in unicode. When I try to check spelling through kword or kedit by using aspell,it is identifying the misspelled words correctly. But it is highlighting in different place not in original misspelled word except if the misspelled word is the first word of the line. The reason for this problem is the misspelling slot of kspell is giving the location of misspelled word in the number of characters. But kde applications are taking that position as the number of glypes(highlighting the words which are at that many number of Glyph width). Is there any way to correct this problem? Expecting your valueable response. With Regards, M.Kasirajan, Project Associate, DON Lab,CS Department, IIT Madras, Chennai-36. _______________________________________________ Aspell-devel mailing list Asp...@gn... http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/aspell-devel |

Hi Everyone, I'm pleased to release doctoolchain v.0.2 for debian. Find it at: http://cherry.freeshell.org/anvil/release-0.2.1/ You could point /etc/apt/sources.list to http://cherry.freeshell.org/anvil/release-0.2.1/debs and do a apt-get update; apt-get install doctoolchain and send feedback to the list. Oh, before you do that, please read the "fitness for use" clause under the GPL License :-) Please send in your feedback. Among identified TODOs are: - rename the package from doctoolchain to indic-doc-toolchain - remove the virtual package "provides" - remove the bsdmake package and substitute freebsd-make which comes with the freebsd-buildutils ported by Robert Milan - submit patches to the indic-doc tree to update debian specific paths. Earlier patch was quietly dropped by Jkoshy :-) This time perhaps a shell script could be used for ALPHA testing. - remove version specific subdirectories, and allow cvs to do the versioning. Koshy, is the make system flexible enough that doing make JADEPATH=/xxxxx/ works ? If so, I'll cook up a little script to do that. Thanks, Cherry. _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
