[XeTeX] Hyphenating Tamil

[Venkatesan. S.K. (TNQ)]

Hi,

I am trying to demo XeTeX for a Tamil conference coming up in a couple of
days from now.
I am not able to make words break although I try different things.
I found that Santhosh Thottingal's hyphenation patterns is there
(texmf\tex\generic\hyph-utf8\patterns\hyph-ta.tex)
and it does get loaded by
texmf\tex\generic\hyph-utf8\loadhyph\loadhyph-ta.tex file also.
But I am not able to break any word at all.
Attached please find the XeTeX file.
You can also use any font  at http://www.wazu.jp/gallery/Fonts_Tamil.html.
I prefer TSCu_Times that comes with Latin also or you can also use
SooriyanDotCom font which has both Tamil and Latin.

Regards

Suki
