I'm just curious, considering the RV padapaatha is, in effect, a
"commentary"--is this what the rendering of texts should be? Or whould
the analyzing per akSara not be left to the citation of specific passages
in analytical studies.
Viz. e-texts, preparing them is mammoth enough considering limitations,
still, of non-roman-script computing. OCR work would still require
line-by-line analysis and search engines now--for a careful scholar--can
pick out units of words sought without akSara analysis.
