Re: Indic script support in cross-compilation environment

["Harshvardhan Ketkar" <harshvardhan ketkar gmail com>]

Dear all,

The problem is fixed. Instead of using the actual devanagari
characters from the character map, I used their unicode values
instead. This fixed it.
However, some input methods like gtk-im-extra do use actual devanagari
characters inside the look-up table.
Thanks for all the help.

Cheers,
Harshvardhan
