Some deviations noted on Bamini layout. http://tawp.in/r/2na0 பாமினி section. No| english key stroke|expected result 1 |* (asterisk) |ழூ 2 |= |ஸ்ரீ 3 |i |$2ை 4 |n |$2ெ 5 |N |$2ே 6 |_ (underscore)| $2ூ (only for ஜ், ஷ், ஸ், ஹ்) 7 |{ |$2ு (only for ஜ், ஷ், ஸ், ஹ்)
> 3 |i |$2ை > 4 |n |$2ெ > 5 |N |$2ே > 6 |_ (underscore)| $2ூ (only for ஜ், ஷ், ஸ், ஹ்) > 7 |{ |$2ு (only for ஜ், ஷ், ஸ், ஹ்) Need some clarification on "$2". i => $2ை means, மi => மை ? and ஜ_ => ஜூ ?
yes santhosh. what you describe is the requirement in both cases (i wasnt able to copy the glyphs without the $2 for some reason) i => $2ை means, மi => மை ? and ஜ_ => ஜூ ?
Updated in r106435 Can you verify in translatewiki.net and confirm?
Tested Santosh. A few bugs/left out keystrokes have been reported by testers. 3, 4 and 5) கெ, கை, கொ, all appear broken as ெக, ைக, ைக (not sure if this happened because of the way we reported the issues 3, 4 and 5. If so apologies). No| english key stroke|expected result 8) } $2ூ (for ற், ந், ல், ன், த், ண் alone) 9) + $2ூ (for ங், ஞ், வ், ய், ப் alone) 10) ~ '

If so > apologies). The current rules are f= க and fn = கெ, fN =கே and fi = கை . In comment 0, in 3,4, and 5 you asked for கெ, கே and கை . and not for கெ, கை, கொ. Let me know if any corrections needed here. Regarding ~=> ' , are you sure we need to remap Tilda to single quote ? I don't see single quote mapped to anything now.

To get கெ we have to type first 'க' then 'ெ', not as in visually we see vowel sign first in 'கெ', it is actually க+ெ
Junaid, does this mean this report is invalid, because the current implementation is "per standard"?
(In reply to comment #7) > Junaid, does this mean this report is invalid, because the current > implementation is "per standard"? Not fully, I think and Santhosh already done a commit remaining few.
Its rare to find a native Bamini user(a known community editor, since most of the users who prefer this layout are anonymous srilankan tamils) to test and we have not caught hold of the person who reported this. We will try to chase and ask the user to verify. Me / Sodabottle are not probably the right people to test this. :|

To get கெ we have to type first 'க' then 'ெ', not as in visually > we see vowel sign first in 'கெ', it is actually க+ெ Junaid, https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/tamilvisai-tamilkey/ actually does as per bug report. i.e ெ + க = கெ and so on for கெ, கை, கொ. This can potentially introduce a lot of junk if not typed properly but it seems to be specialty of the keyboard layouts (in Srilanka: Bamini, Renganathan). Quoting "Key sequences are defined on the “type as you write” method " from http://www.icta.lk/en/programmes/pli-development/104-local-languages-initiative-/651-sls-1326-2008-tamil-ict-standard.html Assigning it to myself to fix bugs, add more unit tests now that there are 3 users who can help in testing and one of the newer editors brought the requirement of having Bamini at Village pump. http://ta.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%AE%B5%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%95%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%95%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%AA%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%AA%E0%AF%80%E0%AE%9F%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%AF%E0%AE%BE:%E0%AE%86%E0%AE%B2%E0%AE%AE%E0%AE%B0%E0%AE%A4%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%A4%E0%AE%9F%E0%AE%BF#.E0.AE.8E.E0.AE.B4.E0.AF.81.E0.AE.A4.E0.AF.8D.E0.AE.A4.E0.AF.81.E0.AE.AA.E0.AF.8D.E0.AE.AF.E0.AF.86.E0.AE.B0.E0.AF.8D.E0.AE.AA.E0.AF.8D.E0.AE.AA.E0.AE.BF.E0.AE.AF.E0.AF.88_.E0.AE.8E.E0.AE.99.E0.AF.8D.E0.AE.95.E0.AF.87_.E0.AE.A4.E0.AE.B0.E0.AE.B5.E0.AE.BF.E0.AE.B1.E0.AE.95.E0.AF.8D.E0.AE.95.E0.AF.81.E0.AE.B5.E0.AE.A4.E0.AF.81.3F
