How to type Myanmar Language
It will be a long way to come native Myanmar script support on any operating system. If you type b in old ASCII font, it will come up with ဘ depending on the font keyboard mapping. See here for typical Myanmar keyboard mapping. Nowadays Unicode font is preferred and you will see most Unicode font on the web since it can display virtually all langauges in one font. For Unicode font, some kind of Input Method Editor (IME) by the OS is necessary. There is no IME for Myanmar script.
Many custom Myanmar script input editor exists, but the following two are recommended and free.
Since they are not IME supported by OS, there are some quirks. One is it received keyboard event even if the active focus control is not receiving text input. Fortunately it can be easily disabled by provided pop menu as necessary.
However if you still not wanting to installed, tou can try out our online editor here.
There are also excellent font converter tool, Kanaung for converting various Myanmar fonts.
