does this netbsd support the hindi and bengali script? this netbsd sounds like interesting but if it does not have the essential hindi and bengali support then useless it is much!
I don’t know about specific languages, but NetBSD is working on uwscons: universal wscons, to support different scripts on the console.
See http://www.feyrer.de/NetBSD/blog.html#20050406_0318 for some example screenshots.
I think borader perspective is required here, there is more to NetBSD than mere Hindi or Bengali fonts. If there would be demand enough for NetBSD to support those fonts, probably it would. The article is not about font support so lets stick to it then and not deviate away from the topic.
No. It doesnt. the only supported commercial Linux distributions are RHEL and Mandrake. Fedora core 3 and above have bengali, hindi, tamil, gujarathi and others included by default. None of the BSD’s include indic language support
