Okay, now at long last the data provided by Thakara nearly two years ago, in response to Creation of transliterating input methods, is here. You can download a Sinhalese transliterating input method using the data provided, either here for the text file or here for the zipped version.

The file is actually pretty small, but the ZIP keeps people from forgetting to right-click on the link to download the file....

I was going to post instructions again but I really cannot do better than I did in 12 (The knights who say நீ, redux, #2) so I will just point people there for the instructions.

Once they are followed the Sinhalese Input Method 0.5 will be right there for people to try out and use.

Enjoy, and if Sinhalese is a language you know fluently, then please feel free to give feedback to help make it better....
