Nepali Users Here

Hello Everybody. I am Archlinux user from Nepal. I need help to localize Archlinux according to the need of a typical Nepali user, such as support for nepali localization, SCIM input method and Nepali language support for Firefox and other programs. That's why I am here.

Re: Nepali Users Here

Doesn't nepali use Devanagari?  Devanagari is definitely available in unicode.

There is support for nepali language in arch linux. you can use archlinux and you can update offline. It's better than other linux distro.
