This is a great request. The (specifically Bijoy 52 or Bijoy Bayanno ) is the de facto standard for typing Bengali in many legacy environments (newspapers, government offices in Bangladesh). Unlike modern Unicode layouts like Avro, Bijoy uses ANSI/ASCII font-based encoding (often called "Bijoy font" or "AKL" format), where a single English key produces a specific Bengali glyph when rendered in a specific font (e.g., SutonnyMJ , Bijoy ).
