CSX (Computer Sanskrit eXtended) is a simple definition of an 8-bit 
character set suitable for the display and interchange of Sanskrit
texts in romanized transliteration.  It defines characters like
"s acute" and a character code for each such character.

The scheme was agreed at an informal meeting of interested Sanskritists
at a side-meeting during the Vienna meeting of the International
Association of Sanskrit Studies (IASS) a few years ago.  

This directory contains a description of the CSX character coding scheme.
