Module:pa-Arab-translit/documentation

	This module documentation page is in beta stage.
	Module has been updated. It should work as expected for majority of the words. It may have problems with diphthongs and a minority of Arabic loanwords. Module needs verification from other native Punjabi speakers who understand Shahmukhi lemmas with diacritics, because this is quite difficult to get your head wrapped around. Check documentation for further listed problems.

This module will transliterate text in the [[:Category:Erreur Lua dans Module:language-like à la ligne 146 : attempt to call local 'extra_processing' (a table value).|Erreur Lua dans Module:language-like à la ligne 146 : attempt to call local 'extra_processing' (a table value).]]. It is also used to transliterate Old Punjabi, Pahari-Potwari, and Saraiki.

The module should preferably not be called directly from templates or other modules. To use it from a template, use {{xlit}}. Within a module, use Module:languages#Language:transliterate.

For testcases, see Module:pa-Arab-translit/testcases.
