That pointer is to the new keyboard standard the TN govt is
proposing - *with* the grantha characters.  Doesn't this
sound like (from your definition) 'the 800 pound gorilla'
swollowing the 'political dynamite' ?

Response to Kumar

"A question - In the latest typewriter machines that the TN govt distributed
to a good number of govt. departments (I know this happened), are granthas
included ?  Would just prefer a straight YES or NO answer for a start :-)"

Well, the keyboard layout is available at:

http://www.irdu.nus.sg/tamilweb/tamilnet97/doc-draft/typewriter.gif

All the six grantha letters are there in the top row in shift space of the
number keys.  AFAIK, that is the end of story.
