FYI Mac OS X 10.5.0 (aka Leopard) ships with full Unicode Tibetan
support in the base install.
 
There are 2 fonts and 3 keyboard layouts.
 
The fonts were developed by Prof. Shojiro Nomura of Otani University and
Steve Hartwell. They are:<br>
* '''Kailasa''' - System font (More compact; used for User Interface labels)<br>
* '''Kokonor'''  - Application font (used for Documents and the Finder)<br>
 
The Keyboard layouts are:<br>
* '''Tibetan - Otani'''
* '''Tibetan - QWERTY'''
* '''Tibetan - Wylie''' - (EWTS 2.02)
 
Scope of support includes full Unicode Tibetan block coverage and stacks
for transliterated Sanskrit plus some contemporary Chinese
phoneticizations.
 
If you find any unusual stacks or Unicode sequences that are not
displayed properly, please email a screenshot and a copy of the Unicode
text data to me, as well as any other feedback or enhancement requests.
 
Best wishes
