-This article describes how to install the required software in order to be able to display and edit texts encoded in [[Tibetan Unicode]]
+Kala Heruka - ([[khrag 'thung nag po]]).
-==Overview==
-In order to be able to view and edit Tibetan texts encoded in [[Tibetan Unicode]] you need three components:
-* A operating system that supports displaying ''complex scripts''.
+*[[Kalaheruka]].
-* [[Tibetan Fonts]] in Unicode format
+*[[Wellsprings of the Great Perfection]] has a chapter with his song of realization.
-* A [[Tibetan Input Method]]
-One of the major advantages of Unicode is that Unicode applications do not need to understand the rules how to create glyphs for a given language. The actual knowhow how to create Tibetan stacks resides within the unicode font and the ''complex script'' support of the operating system.

+[[Category:Early Dzogchen Lineage]]
-Once all three components above are available, standard Unicode applications can be used to create, edit and display Tibetan texts.
-A particularly useful Unicode application is [http://www.openoffice.org OpenOffice]. OpenOffice 2 is available for Windows, Linux and Mac (see http://www.neooffice.org and comments below) so Unicode documents created with OpenOffice can efficiently be shared across platforms.

-===Installing Unicode fonts===
-===Installing a Tibetan input method===
-==Unicode enabling Windows Vista==
-No software needs to be installed: Windows Vista already contains all three required components: an input method (see Control Panel / Regional and Language settings for a Tibetan keyboard), support to display Tibetan script and a Tibetan font, Microsoft Himalaya.
-In addition you might want to install additional [[Tibetan Fonts]] (all existing Unicode fonts seem to work well) or an alternative [[Tibetan Input Method]].
-You can directly start using Notepad, OpenOffice or the latest Microsoft Office version to create Tibetan documents in standard Unicode encoding.
