Theravada Triptiaka in Unicode Sinhala (http://thripitakaya.com)

[sajeewaw]

Dear All,

There is an effort to convert metta.lk tripitaka content into Unicode sinhala
characters.

LINK : http://thripitakaya.com/

This is started mainly due to the increase use of sutta contents in dhamma
discussions in collaborative social networking sites such as Facebook/Myspace
and also in sihala blogging. As far as I know currently, there are 2 sites which
provide sinhala translations of pali canon.
1)http://www.aathaapi.org/Thripitaka.php (PDF format)
2)http://metta.lk/tipitaka/ (Need separate fonts)

Neither of those can be used effectively in excerpting sutta quotes in the
internet. But having the Tripitaka in Unicode sinhala, users will be able to
search in Google, copy sutta quotes and use in any modern website.

We are using a software tool to convert the content in metta.lk into Unicode
characters.

This is done with the blessings of Ven. mettavihari thero in metta.lk.
Anyone of you can contribute to this effort by donating your spare time in
converting the content and also reviewing the converted content by simply
reading!
Hope this will help to propagate dhamma within the sinhala reading internet
using community.Appreciate if you could provide any comments on this initiative.

Theruwansaranai!

you should contact University buddhist societies for help.
I know several Buddhist societies in SL Universities in past helped Rev. Metta Vihari thero.

Good luck.
