Baraha

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Baraha is a word processing application for creating documents in Indian languages. It was developed by Sheshadrivasu Chandrashekar with an intention to provide a freeware to enable and encourage Indians use their native languages on the computers. Baraha can be effectively used for creating documents, sending emails and publishing web pages. Baraha uses a transliteration scheme, which allows the user to write any Indian language in English and later convert it to the respective language.
