If the proposed project — at the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) Department at Jadavpur University — reaches fruition, it will be possible to convert Santali books, written in Bengali or Devanagari script, to the native Ol Chiki script with minimum human intervention. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://www.hindu.com/2007/04/27/stories/2007042718801400.htm" target="blank">www.hindu.com/2007/04/27/stories/2007042718801400.htm</a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
