Dear Karunakar,

These days, we have seen a lot of very useful mails (on PLUG mailing list) 
for using devnagari fonts on Linux under various applications.
If we collect all these mails together and organise them properly, it will 
become a very good FAQ/Howto for Marathi/Devnagri usage.

Looks like more such mails are expected on this and the number of users are 
increasing. These mails can also be added to such Howto/FAQ.

This can also be put up on the Indlinux project website.

What you think about it.

Any volunteers?
