[Mlterm-dev-en] mlterm with Devanagari

[Mayuresh <may...@ac...>]

Hi

I am new to the list and this is my first day of working with mlterm.
Please excuse me if I am missing anything obvious.

I have installed the latest version 3.0.11 and tried to view Devanagari -
just by visiting google.co.in in elinks, though no luck yet.

I believe my compilation with indic option is fine since the option does
appear in the configuration gui.

I have Lohit fonts already installed and after reading README.indic I also
installed DVYG0ntt.ttf.

I have tried launching by both forms of command shown in README.indic and
also tried tweaking encoding to utf8 and font to one of the devanagari
fonts in gui as well as through command line options and also as suggested
in README.indic.

For most of these times, the devanagari characters appeared just as *.
Only time something different happened was when I launched with
environment variable LANG=en_US.UTF-8, though in place of * just some
garbled characters appeared.

Would appreciate help in trying to get it work.

Mayuresh.
