Hi,
Just searching through the messages, came across this. Sorry a bit
late, but it makes me feel useful to answer it. Here's the link for
conversion for all Pali characters between the Thai and Roman scripts:

(I also saw this in the appendix to Introduction to Pali by Warder.)
By the way, the search box doesn't work very well, I remember someone
saying something about using the Firefox browser in a reply to one of
my posts, but apparently no results come up when I search "firefox"...
Kind regards,
June
