A multilingual Indic keyboard interface is an Input Method that can be used to input text in any Indic language. The input can follow the phonetic style making use of the standard QWERTY layout along with support for popular keyboard and typewriter layouts [1] of Indic languages using overlays. Indic-keyboards provides a simple and clean interface supporting multiple languages and multiple styles of input working on multiple platforms. XML based processing makes it possible to add new layouts or new languages on the fly. These features, along with the provision to change key maps in real time make this input method suitable for most, if not all text editing purposes. Since Unicode is used to represent text, the input method works with most applications.
