An X Virtual Terminal with support for Indian Scripts has been developed. Due to the unavailability of Free Indian Fonts, it has been possible to release only the Indian Devanagri version named Rxvt-Idev. Versions supporting other Indian Languages will be released shortly.
Activities currently going on
Development of an Onscreen Indian Language Keyboard, to be integrated with applications.
Development of a Virtual Terminal which supports all the major Indian Languages and allows Transliteration
Development of a Library which will help developers to create Applications with support for Indian Languages
Development of Plugins to display ISCII text in Netscape Navigator
