[PATCH] Add support for the Modi script |
|
Date: |
Mon, 16 May 2022 05:03:59 +0530 |
I have added the modi script to Emacs this time.
I have also renamed Hindi to Devanagari in etc/HELLO, since this script is also used by
languages other than Hindi, like: Marathi and Nepali. If this change is not warranted you can
revert it.
Please review the patch.

Thanks, I therefore rewrote the NEWS entries for the scripts we
already installed to make them more concise. Please follow this
template for the future additions.

Installed, thanks.
