What is Aksharamala?

Aksharamala (meaning "alphabet" in Sanskrit) allows easy input of Indian language text.

Aksharamala is a standards-based software tool that facilitates inputting content in Indian languages. While enabled, Aksharamala automatically transliterates the English characters you type to a target Indian Language in the application of focus. Aksharamala works as a conduit between the keyboard and the target application and does not have an UI of its own. It is very flexible in that you can change the target language, the input scheme from the tray app with the use of a hotkey. It supports the popular ITRANS transliteration scheme and several keyboard layouts such as DOE.

It currently supports Hindi, Sanskrit, Marathi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Gujarathi, Gurumukhi, Bengali, Assamese and Urdu.

Aksharamala allows direct input of Indian language text into popular windows desktop applications (such as Microsoft Office, OpenOffice, and Outlook) and web applications (such as Gmail, Yahoo mail, Hotmail).
