description
devnag
is a preprocessor that reads transliterated Devanagari input
delimited by n and converts it into a form with which TeX is
familiar.
The
preprocessor handles the details of character placement such
as the alignment of vowel diacritics and consonant
ligatures. The rest of the layout, however, must be managed
by the user.
For
specification of the format please see the documentation
accompanying the package.
options
in[.dn]
out[.tex]
The default file extension for
an input file is .dn and for an output file .tex. The output
filename is optional. If an output filename is not
specified, the preprocessor will name it after the input
file.
