Hi saravanan:
Thanks you very much.
:)
But I still have a question.
Some indic engineers told that the (Cons(0x0d15-0x0d39) + 0x0d4d + 
0x0d30) to become (0x0d30 + 0x0d4d + Cons) after reordering. Not only 
(0x0d15 + 0x0d4d + 0x0d30) becomes (0x0d30 + 0x0d4d + 0x0d15) after 
reordering.
Is it right?
I wrote the patch for malayalam as this rule.
:)
