Parivartak

With computers being widely used to write text and various documents, text editors became more and more complex to suit every need and meet most demands. On the other hand, the abundance of cultural differences that in this case refer to characters, makes it a little difficult to convert text, but applications such as Parivartak make sure possibilities exist and are easy to use.

The application is strictly dedicated to handling English characters, as well as Hindi and Marathi language specifications. Not to be confused with a translator, the application's core function is merely to convert characters in unicode.

For enhanced accessibility, there's an implemented virtual keyboard fitted with either a phonetic or remington style so you don't have to add a new layout to your current keyboard configuration. There is a Unicode Editor at your disposal where you can freely write down text under the selected format, or even import text for further processing.

Another component is the converter itself, which splits the main window into two panels, one for editing and importing files, while the other acts as a preview section. Unfortunately, you can only add files through the dedicated menu, because of the lack of support for drag and drop.

The amount of formats supported by the application is reduced to TXT and RTF, but text can easily be inserted through the clipboard. Conversion is done in a jiffy, and you can then either preview your file in a HTML page, DOC or TXT files or save to as many types of files.

On an ending note, Parivartak gets the job properly done and in the blink of an eye. It's practical to have around, especially if your work implies using diverse characters or process text written in Hindi, Marathi or Nepali. You quickly get acquainted with its features and text can be previewed and saved to several common formats.
