;; Vutam Type_As_You_Write is suitable for 3 basket mechanical type writers.
;; Meant for those who know to write Tamil.
;; Had the Unicode encoding scheme followed that of TSCII, Vutam can run even in unintelligent keyboards with atleast three baskets.
;; The intelligent SCIM supports many baskets; the third basket is selected in it, by pressing any Alt. key & a Normal key together.
;; Basket one Normal: Short vowels & Consonants.
;; Basket two Shift: Long vowels & consonants with "u" vowel mark.
;; Basket three Alt.: Tamil abbreviations, Numerals & consonants with "U" vowel mark. (H & Alt. h may also be used to get u & U vowel mark hooks.)
;; SCIM's frontend globalsetup trigger may be configured, not to include Alt. grave, since Alt. `  has to produce ` in our layout.
;; Hence the name: VUTAM.
;; The vowel marks: "ai", "e" and  "E"  to be typed before the consonants, as in writing Tamil.
;; Hence the name: Type_As_You_Write.
;; Key allocation scheme: (1). No logic: \ & q  (2). Script similarity: w & f  (3). Convention: z,x & b(big)  & (4). Phonetic similarity: Rest.
