@Bob: you have never been rude to me; unless, of course, I am so goofy as to
have misunderstood the subtleties of what you are saying . . .  :)

The person who wrote this "Did you fall asleep before you reached the 
end of the subject?"

knows very well who they are.

AND . . . between you, me and the rest of the Use-List, I am 
sufficiently thick-skinned not to let that
sort of thing really fuss me: but the person who wrote it should no that 
I am only partly cretinous,
and that there might have been a perfectly good reason for my question: 
which there was.
----------------------------------------------

Just been over to my Mac and managed very successfully to type some 
Hindi into a Unicode field,
so suspect this is a Windows 7 thing.

Knowing that Non-Latin keyboards do tend to "screw up" in Windows (faced 
this with Vista a while
back), I went through a merry time with my Devawriter; to the extent 
that it locks out all
keyboard mappings except the ones I have programmed into the standalone 
itself.

J. Landman Gay was writing something that I only saw out of half and eye 
that Unicode types
would be happy about whatever is forthcoming in LC 5.5 (personally don't 
have the money right now);
so, just maybe, this aspect of things will be sorted out.
