My idea for a transliteration was more for the need for the ability
to search (eg you remember an aya and don't remember where it is..)
The quran.tar.Z on Princeton doesn't fulfill this need--since there
can be many translations for a single aya...

The problem of a version of the quran which non-Arab speakers can read
is yet another one!!!
