Sanskrit and Pali diacritical marks

Yoda

From time to time someone may wish to write Sanskrit or Pali terminology on this forum; transcriptions of these languages can be displayed correctly with their diacritical marks if handled correctly before you post. You can cut and paste from here if you wish. You have to have a font installed which has glyphs for these characters.

I'd be interested to learn whether people on different platforms can see these characters correctly or not.
