Version: HindiWriter 1.3
"The best way to write Hindi!"
Pros: Devanagari is only nominally an alphabetic language. And Hindi writers don't think in terms of matraas and conjuncts. So the inscript system has always been the most natural way to type in Hindi. But until I found HindiWriter I couldn't find a way to type it into ordinary applications in Windows.
The included spellchecker is great as well. What a luxury to have spellchecking in Hindi!
I loved this little utility so much I wrote the author and offered to help with the next release!
Cons: I love it, but wish it did a better job of spellchecking words written by non native speakers who frequently confuse palatal and retroflex consonants. I wish you could set the key used to change keyboards.
