The attached patch works fine.
I was trying tamil-itrans for the first time and I find quail-help to be
a bit overwhelming. There are lots of characters that is displayed and
it is difficult to find the one that I am interested in inputting. In
some sense it is very confusing for first time user.
I believe it would be lot more helpful if the input table for vowels and
consonants be displayed upfront. I am attaching a table that I created
for myself during the process. You will find that the characters are
displayed in their natural order.
Independent Vowels
==================
a அ
aa ஆ
i இ
I ஈ
u உ
U ஊ
e எ
E ஏ
ai ஐ
o ஒ
O ஓ
au ஔ
Consonants
==========
k க்
N^ ங்
ch ச்
~n, JN ஞ்
T ட்
N ண்
t த்
n ந்
p ப்
m ம்
y ய்
r ர்
l ல்
z, J ழ
L ள்
rh ற்
v வ்
nh ன்
Very rarely used
================
No input methods for these. In general do they have one?
