NHM Writer – Indic Unicode Writer

August 21, 2008 · Filed Under India, Tamil 

NHM writer is one of the most famous Tamil Unicode writers. It lets you type in Unicode Tamil format, which is a globally recognized encodings.

Recently NHM writer released their new version with support to several languages such as ssamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Punjabi, Tamil & Telugu.

I prefer NHM writer over Keyman for Three reasons.

  1. It’s really a small software and less than 1 MB
  2. It supports 5 layouts (including Tamil 99 and Bamini)
  3. It enables Regional Language support in Control panel without Win XP CD.

According to NHM, this is why NHM writer rocks

  • Write in 10 Indian languages such as Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Punjabi, Tamil & Telugu
  • Fast, Compact and Effective software with size less than 1 MB
  • Enables “Regional Language Support”without need of “Windows CD”
  • Works with Windows 2003/XP & Vista
  • “Windows Text Services” for smooth typing of Unicode in MS Office applications
  • Context sensitive key preview & On-Screen Keyboard for learners
  • Treats Backspace as Undo while Typing, that ensures your speed
  • Extendable to more encodings & Keyboard layouts for any language

As I see, they gonna add support to Sinhalase as well.
