You can use any tags that you want to delimit text in your document. Just be sure that they do not occur as non-delimiters someplace else in the document.
| Start tag | End tag | From encoding | To encoding | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| * | SLP1 | Devanagari Unicode | Any text that is not within tags is assumed to be encoded in SLP1 and should be transcoded to Devanagari Unicode | |
| {{kh}} | {{/kh}} | Kyoto-Harvard | Roman Unicode | Any text between {{kh}} and {{/kh}} tags is assumed to be encoded in Kyoto-Harvard and will be transcoded to Roman Unicode. |
| <tel> | </tel> | SLP1 | Telugu Unicode | Any text between <tel> and </tel> tags is assumed to be encoded in SLP1 and will be transcoded to Telugu Unicode. |
| <eng> | </eng> | Anything | Leave as is | Any text between <eng> and </eng> tags is passed through as is and the tags are removed. |
Applying these transcoding rules to the following text
kfzRa {{kh}}kRSNa{{/kh}} uvAca <tel>kfzRa</tel> rAma <eng>Leave as is</eng>
will create this text
कृष्ण kṛṣṇa उवाच కృష్ణ राम Leave as is
