This is a keyboard for input of the Malayalam according to the transliteration
scheme called Mozhi (https://sites.google.com/site/cibu/mozhi). The keymap is
written in Keyman keyboard language and developed as a part of Varamozhi
Project under the LGPL license.
The Mozhi is intended to be the most intuitive scheme for Malayalam speakers.
It simplifies what the user needs to remember and is not phonetically
accurate.
This keymap supports the current standard for Malayalam Chillus (i.e. without
special encoding). It offers mnemonic keyboard functionality and smart-quote
functionality with comas and numerals.
This port installs the keyboard so that it can be used through SCIM or
IBus KMFL IMEngine (textproc/scim-kmfl-imengine, textproc/ibus-kmfl).
You should now have the new keyboard in the section
"Malayalam" in your SCIM/IBus menu. If you don't see
it, restart X.
At the moment, this keyboard has no downloadable
documentation. For the details on the Mozhi scheme,
please see the Project's homepage, especially
https://sites.google.com/site/cibu/mozhi.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
(Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above )
- Patch SCIM KMFL engine (textproc/scim-kmfl-imengine) to use
the same neutral keyboard repository as textproc/ibus-kmfl does,
${LOCALBASE}/share/kmfl/. This approach is similar to m17n (its
keyboard databases, devel/m17n-db and textproc/m17n-contrib, are
shared between textproc/scim-m17n and textproc/ibus-m17n). This
patch also makes both these KMFL engine ports to read ~/.kmfl/
instead of SCIM-oriented ~/.scim/kmfl/.
There is UPDATING text that informs KMFL users about this.
- Patch keyboard ports (7 of them) to install data to the new
repository, ${LOCALBASE}/share/kmfl/; the keyboard ports were
SCIM-only and used to install to ${LOCALBASE}/share/scim/kmfl/.
- Adapt descriptions in other KMFL ports (textproc/kmflcomp,
textproc/libkmfl);
- While we are here, do some additional maintenance.
- Remove the 7 old ports.
- Please see the PR for full details.
