I was quite surprised to see a language pack for LibreOffice for my mother tongue in the extra repo(libreoffice-as). I was wondering as to how to write it? Do I need to buy a special keyboard or will this qwerty keyboard work?
The language pack is not related to your writing, it only means that the user interface will be translated to Assamese. If you want to type in Assamese script, I guess you'll just have to configure your keyboard correctly (obviously, there will be the problem of the keys not corresponding to the letters produced, but that's just something to get used to ;-)). I don't have support for Assamese keyboard layout on my computer, but maybe Bengalese is similar enough that you can use that? You'll also need the correct fonts installed, if you can view <http://as.wikipedia.org/>, correctly then you should be fine (works here). Good luck! -t
