Importing contacts in Nokia 6020
Nokia 6020 when bought 10 years back cost me about 12k and was great at that time with the built-in camera, infrared and most of them the joystick made it very comfortable to use. It was my first mobile that could connect with the computer. It had data cable DKU-5 for the data transfer between the PC and mobile. It's still in use and my mom uses it. Though it lacks the Nepali fonts for her, she uses contacts photo list to dial us and relatives. It is just that great and no other phones had been used so long without problem. The problem with it was, it was dead one day and brother had it fixed with the new T mobile Symbian OS. Everything was fine unless one day most of the contacts were deleted by one of...

Nepali Fonts Keyboard Layout

Nepali Fonts Keyboard Layout
Nepali Unicode has been the defacto standard in Nepali fonts. It is every where in Nepali computing, in web, in database. However the old documents are still in TrueType Nepali fonts like Preeti, Kantipur. Though it may look like turning back from Unicode to True Type Nepali fonts, I have included these True Type Nepali fonts keyboard layout here. several times it had been the necessity to print out the keyboard layouts of Preeti font, Kantipur font and Fontasy Himali...
Do we still need FAT32?
Do we still need FAT32?
Still some people are formatting the harddisk with fat32 file format. I asked myself why?
1. connect it to a NAS device (to avoid NTFS file permission errors)
2. windows is not only the OS on earth, therefore for Mac, Linux, and OLD Windows such as Windows 98
But Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 or later does not let us format the hard disk more than 32GB as FAT32. So a workaround this is using a command prompt
format /FS:FAT32 X:
where X is the drive letter for the harddi...
Opera desktop and Nepali Unicode
Nagariknews.com in opera looks very unreadable in nepali unicode font at least difficult. The mangal font would have been easier to read in the browser. Firefox by default takes mangal and so no problem in it. But opera (my version 11.61) takes Aparajita as default in monospace font for Devnagari. In monospace font it is only Aparajita font, could not be changed. Though changing the other in Mangal worked in my co-workers but has not resolved in mine. Whereas Kantipur site is fine in this.For the co-worker changing it to Mangal font in Normal section Devnagari Writing system > in International fonts from the fonts of the advanced tab from the preference menu, it switched back to Mangal Font.Tools >> Preference...

Blogging from the desktop
I don't blog much, but when it comes to blogging its really hard to type in the wordpress editing page. Sometimes the cursor just vanishes out, nowhere to be seen. Some desktop blogging tools from http://www.centernetworks.com/wordpress-desktop-blogging Its really frustating: I too cannot use Word 2007 to post on my wordpress blog. Trying to download free Zoundry. Update: Finally it worked with Word. XML-RPC api is disabled by default. It should be enabled from Settings >> Writings >> Remote Publishing XML-RPC - Enable the WordPress, Movable Type, MetaWeblog and Blogger XML-RPC publishing protocols.However Word has to download existing post each time I wish to open and Zoundry does not have rich text editing like word. I can't...
