<div dir="ltr">Hi all,<div><br></div><div>While I adapted remington keyboard layout for inputting unicode Malayalam in Gnu/Linux, I had maintained that, this was one of the most popular typewriter keyboards available in malayalam. The second populist Malayalam typewrtiter keyboard was introduced by Verityper and the layout is known as veritfont. Supersoft's Thoolika had a version of it included in their ascii typing utility. Though this tool is archaic now, this keyboard had been in use, in Kerala Kaumudi for long. Now, Kaumudi had changed from Ascii to Unicode. With this transfer, they were forced to change the input method too because of the lack of a keyboard support. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Recently, a group from Mumbai asked me to adapt the veritfont layout for unicode, to use in Windows machines. Some of the functions of this keyboard was not easy to be mapped using Microsoft keyboard layout creator. So instead of keeping it in two levels, I have come up with a multilevel layout based on, but extended thoroughly from the basic Veritfont layout. <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/sh/f8bczxhot4ythak/Ojg0699wEV">Here is the windows version of Verityper Keyboard layout for Unicode Malayalam</a>. Have to adapt it to Gnu/linux too. </div>
<div><br></div><div>The link leads to a dropbox folder. Download it as a zip file by selecting the drop down menu at the top right position of Dropbox. Unzip it. Run the setup and try out the input method. Bugs already reported by the Mumbai team has been fixed. Do let me know of any other bugs.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Source file and layout diagram is also placed in a separate folder in that link. If anybody feels to adapt it to the Gnu/Linux environment, you are welcome. </div><div><br></div><div>Thank you,</div><div>
