There's the problem.  I apparently don't have RomDev.map and tec  
installed.  Doesn't it come with TeXLive?  If not, how do I get it?

Yes. This is true.  I used this before and still do.  I wanted to see if I  
could get back to Devanagari from the transliterated files.  These texts  
are still under development.  Being able to produce either a Devanagari  
version or a transliterated version from one file would be grand.  I could  
continue to work in velthuis encoding and then when the text is where I  
want it run your script script on it and produce a Romanized version.  It  
is not a big hassle.  It would be nice to just have one file that with the  
change of one code produces either Devanagari or transliteration.

Thanks for your help.

Best wishes,

Neal
