hi friends

how can i install indian languages on my linux and windows 7 computer mainly gujarati, Hindi and marathi languages

and how can then i type in those languages on facebook and online forums

On windows, install any hindi font, then you will be able to type in that language. Same case with linux.

really, is it that simple, but how can i write in that language, do i have to do any setting or what ???

Each application has a way of changing the font. Just use it to change to your language.

There is a catch though. The English alphabet combinations needed to produce the exact Indian word might be obscure.

Some ways are phonetic while some others use an ASDF keyboard setup translated to the local language which is bad.
