English Keyboard Layout for Transliteration of Bahá'í Words

This keyboard layout was made for Windows XP and enables the use of simple key-combinations that allow one to easily type the transliterated equivalent of Arabic and Persian Bahá'í words.

Instructions:
1. Right [Alt] + [.] - The right alt key held with the .(period) key will add a "dot under" to the next character typed.
2. Right [Alt] + ['] - The right alt key held with the '(apostrophe) key will add a "diacritical accent" to the next character typed.

The keyboard layout will work with these Windows Fonts for Bahá'í Texts as well as Unicode fonts such as those found here. Click here to download the keyboard layout.
