[ubuntu-in] SCIM keymap for Hindi Baraha system

[withblessings at gmail.com]

Gora,
Baraha works on MSwindows. Why not try on friend's MSwindow's machine who
have installed baraha (as hindi default) to have insight/handson experience
how  it works.  It is left to you.
Without downloading baraha software, you can visit www.baraha.com where
helpful  hints  are available(read completely).  If  you succeeded in baraha
type Hindi (Phonetic latin way as in Baraha ), other languages are easy. Try
to develop and then I will assist  you to include other languages at later
stage. While developing follow baraha latin english like a , A, kA etc  If
you want  I shall type  complete alphabets Latin english equal to
characters of Hini for  e.g.  kRU = कॄ  ( typed as kRU in keyboard output
will be printed as  कॄ.
