bug#54914: 28.1.50; Unable to form Brahmi conjuncts in Emacs


From: समीर सिंह Sameer Singh
Subject: bug#54914: 28.1.50; Unable to form Brahmi conjuncts in Emacs

First, we need to have a "hello" greeting in Brahmi script for the
etc/HELLO file.  Can you show such a greeting?
𑀦𑀫𑀲𑁆𑀢𑁂 (नमस्ते namastē) (11026 1102B 11032 11046 11022 11042) could work in Sanskrit

We also need to know how to write "Brahmi" in Brahmi script, but I
think I found the answer for that: "𑀩𑁆𑀭𑀸𑀳𑁆𑀫𑀻", right?  If that is
incorrect, please tell how to write this correctly.

Yes this is correct 

Can you look and tell whether the keyboard layout shown there is
reasonable?  If not, can you point me to a better one, or maybe
suggest such a layout yourself?  All I need to know is which key on a
standard QWERTY keyboard should produce what Brahmi character(s), and
then I can write the input method myself.

Here is a modified version of the layout which I use

Thanks for testing.

Thanks, but we are not done yet.

First, we need to have a "hello" greeting in Brahmi script for the
etc/HELLO file.  Can you show such a greeting?  It is okay to have two
or even 3 if there's no single phrase for that.

We also need to know how to write "Brahmi" in Brahmi script, but I
think I found the answer for that: "𑀩𑁆𑀭𑀸𑀳𑁆𑀫𑀻", right?  If that is
incorrect, please tell how to write this correctly.

Last, but not least, we should have an input method for Brahmi.  I
looked around, but found only one description of a keyboard map for
Brahmi, which is here:

Can you look and tell whether the keyboard layout shown there is
reasonable?  If not, can you point me to a better one, or maybe
suggest such a layout yourself?  All I need to know is which key on a
standard QWERTY keyboard should produce what Brahmi character(s), and
then I can write the input method myself.

Thanks.
