Sub: AUTO-Transliteration - a powerful and UNIQUE feature of Azhagi - Since 2000
Dear Users,
Azhagi has the facility to transliterate existing English (rather Tanglish) texts without the need to retype them. To auto'transliterate existing texts, one has to just copy and paste the text in the ETA (english text area) of azhagi and the corresponding Tamil will appear in the bottom screen in no time.
It is of immense help to some of the users who had transcribed their Tamil film scripts, poems, slokas, articles, etc. earlier in English or have some material saved from the web in Tanglish. To convert their works in Tamil now, there is no need for them to retype their entire work. They just have to paste it in the ETA (English Text Area) of azhagi and azhagi will do the rest. Ofcourse, there will be some areas wherein they have to make some minor corrections and alterations.
For a screen snapshot depicting this feature, visit http://azhagi.com/pages/snaps/azPowerful.html
This is what Mr.Sundar Krishnamurthy of Bangalore had to say after availing the 'Auto Transliteration' feature:
"Thank you very much. You have saved a lot of my valuable time vide your 'Auto Transliteration' tool. The Lord Almighty shall reward you for this."
Mr.Sundar Krishnamurthy had loads of texts related to "Sri Vishnu Sahasranamam" in transcribed form and as a senior citizen was worried over the efforts needed to convert them all in Tamil. Azhagi did the conversion in no time for him and helped him to easily distribute his divine-related work to 100s of other people. Likewise, many Tamil film scriptwriters find Auto-Transliteration immenselfy helpful.
There might be many more Mr.Sundars and scriptwriters who have the need for Auto-Transliteration but not aware of such a facility existing in Azhagi. In fact, several other facilities are available in Azhagi (like Reverse Transliteration, Word count in Tamil, Tutor's keypad etc.) ever since azhagi's inception in year 2000 itself, which most users are not aware of, simply because of the reason that they did not explore Azhagi. We kindly request you all to explore 'azhagi', as and when your time permits, and get to learn Azhagi in its totality so that even if you are not in need of a facility like Auto-transliteration, you can atleast pass on that information to ALL your 100s and 1000s of contacts so that those amongst them who are in need of that facility get immensely benefitted.
So, kindly take time to explore 'azhagi' and participate more in our efforts to help others. As you take more and more of your time to spread the news of Azhagi, more and more people will get benefitted from azhagi. It also gives more and more time for us to concentrate on developing many more powerful tools like Auto-Transliteration and also enhance them, rather than spending our (in)valuable time in disseminating information on Azhagi and its various unique/useful features.
If you wish to know in what all ways you can give a part of your time in helping to spread the news of Azhagi (and any other software, for that matter) for the benefit of 1000s and 1000s of other users, please visit http://azhagi.com/full.html#muchmore . We have listed out several ways and modes, if in case you are thinking of a single way only (say like emailing others). At this juncture, we have to thank a few noble souls wholeheartedly (like Mr.A.K.Rajagopalan - editor of mazhalaigal.com, Mr.Achalam, Anthony, ..., ...) who have given their
(in)valuable time in helping to spread the news of Azhagi in very many ways. We will write about their sincere efforts separately.

By the by, if you continue to use Azhagi for free, kindly consider making a payment. It will greatly help in Azhagi's growth. In this regard, please read http://azhagi.com/helpus.html fully.
Further TIPS on Auto-Transliteration:
1. You can use this powerful feature to convert data in Excel files too (for e.g. names, city names etc.). Just select some columns of data from your Excel file, paste those data in 'Notepad' first. They will be copied in columns itself, each column separated by space. Copy and paste this data from Notepad onto ETA of Azhagi and it will convert the data to Tamil in columns in TTA. Copy this Tamil data from TTA of Azhagi and paste it in blank columns of your Excel file and you have your converted data ready.
2. When you paste your English (rather Tanglish) text from an external source onto the ETA of Azhagi, in general, the whole text is converted into its Tamil equivalent. But, sometimes you might require that some portions of your pasted text be kept in English itself, without conversion. To achieve this, if you keep the option 'Use caret as English text delimiter' under 'More preferences' ticked, and if your copied English text has certain portions delimited within carets, then these portions will be kept in English itself without conversion. For ex : you can have your external text as : "appaa, eppadi irukkeenga? ^I am fine^" and when you copy this text in ETA of Azhagi, "appaa, eppadi irukkeenga?" will be converted to Tamil but "I am fine" will be kept intact in English itself.
3. If the text to be converted is large, it will take proportionately longer time for conversion. So, if your text is large, it is better to break it into smaller chunks and attempt conversion on the same. If you try out some sample texts first, then you can judge what 'large' means for your specific computer configuration (processor speed, RAM etc.)
The above UNIQUE facility is available in 'azhagi' ever since its inception in year 2000.
Love all Serve all.
Kind Regards.
