GIST Technology for Indian Languages on computers
The acronym "GIST" stands for "Graphics and Intelligence based Script Technology". This technology was developed by 4 passionate and patriotic IITians at Kanpur in the year 1986. After the project was successful, the Govt of India funded it for further development which finally led to the develpment and productionisation of the "good old" GIST Card. The Gist Card is an Add-on card which allows the users to work in all /any indian script of his choice for his DOS based data/text processing applications. The Gist Card is available for both ISA and PC (16bit/32Bit) slots, and can be easily installed on the motherboard of the Computer.
Then came the GIST Terminals - which provided Multilingual or Indian Languages interface for UNIX enviornment.
Both the Gist Cards and Terminals are extensively used by Nationalised Banks and National Informatics Centre for their data processing in Regional and Indian Languages.
