+This is the help file for the Lalitha keymap for Malayalam in XIM.
+
+About Lalitha
+
+As the name suggests, it is a simple to understand keymap for malayalam. It is easy to type and understand. The keymap is given along with.
+
+After installation it can be used by adding India Malayalam-Lalitha layout in gnome-keyboard-properties
+
+The layout is a four layer one, that is a single key maps to a maximum of 4 characters. For example,
+
+in case of 'o',
+'o' gives ൊ
+'Shift+o' gives ോ
+'Right Alt+o' gives ഒ
+'Right Alt+Shift+o' gives ഓ
+
+The advantage of the layout is,
+1) It retains all additional characters, like '/','[','{' etc.
+2) It codes both arabic and malayalam numerals.
+ i.e pressing '1' gives you 1
+ combination of 'Right Alt+1' gives you ൧
+3) The mapping is done with similarity of sounds i.e, 'f' is mapped to ഫ, and g mapped to ഗ. Some exceptions are there in case of 'q', which map as follows:
+
+'q' gives ൈ
+'Shift+q' gives ൌ
+'Right Alt+q' gives ഐ
+'Right Alt+Shift+q' gives ഔ
+
+4) Important additional characters like, ZWSP,ZWNJ and ZWJ are mapped as follows
+
+ ZWSP-'Shift+x'
+ ZWNJ-'Alt+\'
+ ZWJ -'Shift+v'
+
+
+Installation Instructions:
+
+Untar it
+# tar zxvf Lalitha.tar.gz
+
+Install it
+# cd Lalitha
+# ./install.sh
+
+Setup Instructions:
+
+use
+
+#setxkbmap -layout us,ml_Lalitha
+
+to set us and Lalitha as two options.
+and use group select key to switch between them.
+
+otherwise, goto the following path in gnome desktop
+
+desktop->preferences->keyboard
+
+select layout option and add malayalam-Lalitha under india.
+
+the path varies by versions on gnome.
+
+in kde goto KDE control centre, select regional & accessibility and select keyboard layout.
+
+try out the layout and send your suggestions and bug reports to smc-discuss@googlegroups.com and jinesh.k@gmail.com
