Parivartan de Mohan G

Parivartan converts text between Indian scripts and English transliteration.
It is a converter, not a translator: it changes the script and spelling, not
the meaning.

WHAT IT DOES
- Convert English typed in a transliteration scheme into an Indian script.
- Convert text in an Indian script into English transliteration.
- Convert text from one Indian script into another.
- Convert to the Katapayadi sankhya (number) system.

India shares many texts across languages that use different scripts, so you
can keep a text in one script and reach readers of others. It also helps
people who understand a spoken Indian language but cannot read its script:
convert it to English transliteration and read it comfortably. And you can
type in one format, then convert before posting on social networks, blogs,
forums, or email.

INPUT FORMATS
- Any Indian script - auto-detects the script you selected.
- English (ITRANS)
- English (ISO 15919)
- English (IAST)
- General English - accepts loose, casual spelling. Less precise, so prefer
ITRANS / ISO 15919 / IAST when accuracy matters.

SUPPORTED SCRIPTS
Devanagari (Sanskrit, Hindi, Marathi), Telugu, Kannada, Gujarati, Tamil,
Bengali, Gurmukhi (Punjabi), Malayalam, and Oriya (Odia) - plus the
Katapayadi sankhya system.

TWO WAYS TO USE
1. Right-click menu: select text on a web page (or inside a text box),
right-click, choose Parivartan, then pick the input format and target
script. The selection is converted in place - handy for composing posts,
emails, or messages in your preferred script. Your most recent choice is
kept at the top of the menu for one-click reuse.
2. Toolbar popup: click the Parivartan toolbar button to type or paste text,
pick the input format and target script, watch the result update live, and
copy it - without changing any page content.

Works on normal web pages and on local HTML files (file://).

OPTIONS
- Prefer ASCII digits: leave digits 0-9 as-is instead of converting them to
the Indian script (on by default).

PRIVACY
All conversion happens locally in your browser. Parivartan makes no network
requests, collects no data, and uses minimal permissions - it accesses a page
only when you explicitly run a conversion on it.

Release notes (version 1.0.0)
- Parivartan 1.0.0 is a complete rewrite as a modern cross-browser extension. New: a popup converter for typing or pasting text, a simpler context menu, and a one-click "repeat last conversion" shortcut.

Release notes (version 1.1.0)
- Right-click menu reorganized: each input format is now its own clearly labeled submenu, and the format you used last is hoisted to the top for one-click access.
- New "From any Indian script to" option auto-detects the input script and converts to another Indian script, English (ITRANS), or Katapayadi.
- ISO 15919 and IAST input is now case-insensitive, so capitalized words (such as at the start of a sentence) convert correctly.
- Telugu now uses its native nukta sign.
- The menu stays out of browser-internal pages and now also works on local files (file://).
- Faster repeat conversions and a fix for a brief flicker on the settings page.
