Malayalam - atomic chillu letters #6

Hi Arun,

We are planning on using sanscript for conversion to different regional scripts on sanskritdocuments.org. Please see http://www.sanskritdocuments.org/all_iscii/test.htm?lang=sa for a test page.

We have been told that the conversion to malayalam script needs some adjustments.

"Nakara and Makara change into chillu and anusvara respectively in the middle of a word, when they appear before consonant. The same change happens when nakara and makara are the end of words too.

Repha before a consonant in the middle of a word changes into chillu. (also when Repha is at the end of a word)."

Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malayalam_script#Chillus_in_Unicode

So the way, I understand it,

makara - മ് needs to be changed to ം

nakara - ന് needs to be changed to ൻ

repha - ര് U+0D30 U+0D4D should be changed to ർ U+0D7C

We would appreciate, if you can make the appropriate change.

Thanks!
