GRETIL

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

TheGöttingen Register of Electronic Texts in Indian Languages(GRETIL) is a comprehensive repository ofe-textsinSanskritand other Indian languages.[1][2][3] It contains several texts related toIndology,such as philosophical texts.[4]Rather than scanned books or typeset PDF files, these texts are in plain text, in a variety of encodings, and are machine-readable, so that (for instance) word search can be performed on them.[1][5]It was started by Reinhold Grünendahl,[6]with the intention of being a "cumulative register of the numerous download sites for electronic texts in Indian languages".[5]It is used by many scholars; for instance David Smith writes: "Sanskritists are enormously indebted to this incomparably useful site and to those who have contributed e-texts to it."[7]
