Re: [m17n-list] hi-itrans fix

Hi,

I'm able to type क्स्  just by typing "ks" even without your mapping.
The mapping ("ks" "क्स्") is simply redundant and not needed.

Next,  ("ksh" "क्ष्") is ambiguous -- how would you type क्श् then? (k
+ sh = क्श्  as it should be). There is already "x" for "क्ष्‌" if you
really need it. Moreover, typing k + Sh also gives क्ष्  therefore
this mapping is redundant too.

In the same vein, all the below mappings are ambiguous:

  ("jn" "ज्ञ्")        --  then how would you type ज्न ?
  ("nch" "ञ्च्")    -- then how would you type  न्च ?
  ("nCh" "ञ्छ्")                            -- then how would you type  न्छ ?
  ("nc" "ञ्च्")   -- then how would you type  न्च ?
  ("nC" "ञ्छ्")                          -- then how would you type न्छ ?
  ("nchh" "ञ्छ्")   -- then how would you type न्छ ?
  ("nj" "ञ्ज्")    -- then how would you type  न्ज ?
  ("njh" "ञ्झ्")    -- then how would you type  न्झ ?
  ("nJ" "ञ्झ्")    -- then how would you type  न्झ ?

My guess is that you are trying to map Latin letters to Devanagari
glyphs, instead of mapping them to codepoints.

Similar comments apply to kn-itrans.mim.
