<Remarks>
1. "ExtendMods = 1" means 'x' modifier will be applied not only to meys but also to uyirmeys. For instance: 
Suppose "ExtendMods = 0", then, if  'x' is typed after 'ர்', it will change 'ர்' to 'ற்' but if 'x' is typed after 'ர', 'ரா', 'ரி', 'ரீ', etc., they won't get changed to 'ற', 'றா', 'றி', 'றீ', etc.
In the case of "ExtendMods = 1", if  'x' is typed after 'ர்', it will change 'ர்' to 'ற்'. Additionally, if 'x' is typed after 'ர', 'ரா', 'ரி', 'ரீ', etc., they will also get changed to 'ற', 'றா', 'றி', 'றீ', etc. 

2. Under "Mods" tag, the backquote character (`) after ல், ர், ன், etc. is only suggestive of the fact that instead of  'x', you can use backquote character (`) also as the 'x' modifier, in case you feel that backquote character (`) is more convenient than using 'x'. Otherwise, even if you have backquote character (`) after ல், ர், ன், etc., the character which will be actually used as the 'x' modifier is what is specified under the  "ModifierCharacter" tag only. So, if you really wish to use the backquote character (`) as your 'x' modifier, then, replace 'x' with '`' under the "ModifierCharacter" tag.

3. Apart from the the backquote character (`), you can use the backslash character (\) too as the 'x' modifier. i.e. you can replace 'x' with '\' too under the "ModifierCharacter" tag.

4. So, in effect, as of now, you have 3 options for the 'x' modifier character. You can EITHER use 'x' itself OR you can use '\' or '`' as the modifier character.

5. Personally, I use 'x' itself since I do not  make use of 'x' to type 'க்ஷ்'. But, if you are somone very much availing 'x' to type 'க்ஷ்', then I suggest you use '\' or '`' as your 'x' modifier, whichever you feel is more convenient to you.

NOTE-1: 'x' modifier is liberally used in the mappings of other Indic languages (Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam, etc.) in Azhagi+. The same strategy I have used for Tamil also. So, it is not anything new I am introducing. In fact, I have implemented this 'x' modifier for Tamil transliteration in 2016 itself, but in Azhagi's Android App (https://azhagi.com/aa.php). You can view Azhagi Android app's Tamil transliteration scheme's key mappings here - https://www.azhagi.com/aa-tamil-trans-1.php. Therein, I have written about the 'x' modifiers. 

Note-2: The above modifiers setup is not rigid. You can introduce your own modifiers too. For e.g. you can introduce your new modifier line too. For e.g., "இ` = ஈ" can be your own new modifier line. In  other words, you can have the modifiers in this file in such a way that it suits you in the bestEST manner. As simple as that. 

Note-3: If you place an '#' at the start of a modifier line, that would mean that that modifier will not be considered. So, there is no need to delete any existing modifier line in this file, in case you are not in favour of that modifier. Just place an '#' at the start of any such modifier line and that modifier will not be considered by Azhagi.

6. The mappings under the "Maps" tag help you alter 'certain' fundamental mappings of Azhagi itself. I have given this option for two reasons:
a) To satisfy the needs of those who wish to avail the intelligent flexible mappings of Azhagi's Unique Transliteration Scheme while at the same time able to type 'certain' characters alone according to the phonetic mappings they are used to, in other software. In Alt+4 Tamil phonetic typing mode of Azhagi+, "ee = ஏ, oo = ஓ, wa = ந". These are some of the mappings users who type phonetically in Tamil in certain other software are accustomed to.
b) Apart from the aforesaid altered/alternate mappings (used in other software), you can avail the other options I have given for additional mappings like d = த்,  nj = ன்ஜ், etc. too.

Note-1: By default, all the mappings under "Maps" tag are commented out using the "#" character. So, if you wish to use one or more of them, you need to just uncomment them. Thats all. 

Note-2: Ticking the option "Use alternate mappings (i.e. ee=ஏ, oo=ஓ, wa=ந.)" will make the DT (Indic Direct Typer) module internally avail the 3 lines pertaining to "ee, oo and w" alone, eventhough they are commented by default. To make DT avail one or more of the other lines too, you need to uncomment them manually by editing this file and saving it.

Note-3: If you wish to try out all the alternate mappings, please note that you may like to uncomment only one of "d = த்" OR "t = த்" since you need either one of 't' or 'd' (ideally 't') to type 'ட்'. In a similar manner, you may like to uncomment only one of "nth = ன்த்" OR "ndh = ன்த்". So, please have discretion while uncommenting the lines under "Maps" tag OR while introducing your own mappings.

7. If you wish to avail any or all of the "modifiers AND altered mappings" specified in this file in the DT module, then you need to keep the corresponding options "Use extended mappings (lx, rx, nx, etc.)" and "Use alternate mappings" ticked. 

8. If any user-wellwisher can come up with his own good set of "'x' modifiers AND altered mappings" and share it with me and/or in the FILES section (https://www.facebook.com/groups/azhagi/files) of Azhagi's Facebook Group, would feel mighty glad.

9. As Azhagi's user-wellwisher, if you can come up with any other idea like these "'x' modifiers AND altered mappings", you can share the same with me and/or in Azhagi Facebook Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/Azhagi). Thanks in advance.
