Dear Jon,

I do have a PHP script which I used for text formatting for
tipitaka.net. By changing some variables, I can convert among
Velthuis, Unicode, and any old Pali PC fonts, in any direction, e.g.
Norman->Velthuis, Velthuis->Unicode. However, the script has to be
operated manually each time I use it.

What I can do is improve the current script, throw in a
radio-button/check-box for selection of direction, and make a strictly
Velthuis->Unicode or Unicode->Velthuis converter, and make it
available on tipitaka.net.

If you are interested, I can work on it this weekend. There will be
some limitations imposed, though, because the conversion operation
takes up server time and bandwidth, which are both expensive.

metta,
Yong Peng.

BTW is there a CGI script for quickly converting Velthuis to unicode
with diacritics? The Latrobe corpus only works with unicode with
diacritics.
