avagraha in Malayalam Manuscript

[gruenendahl]

This may be a little late, and not really to the point:
One Malayalam print of a Sanskrit text that actually notes avagrahas, 
I.C. Chacko's "Paniniya Pradyotam" (Ernakulam 1955), uses what is 
known as the florin symbol in typography. This suggests to me that there 
was no Malayalam sign available.

For specimina see:

from where you can download

temp2.zip

which contains some TIFFs from Chacko's book, with avagrahas in
1332 (Panini 5,4.76) and
1375 (Panini 5,4.131).
