 ;; Begin author's comments:
 
 ;; 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.
+;; 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 & space space h may also be used to get u & U vowel mark hooks.)
+;; 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.
+;; 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.
