The Error list

When typing Malayalam using Inscript Non-Unicode keyboard, characters with matra is not displaying correctly. This is hindering the use of inscript keyboard in MAC.

Please see the attached file

I am able to replicate the problem (as mentioned below) but that is when I enter the characters incorrectly. If I input the consonant first and then the ligature as it is supposed to then it works as expected. 

Attaching a screencast for better understanding.

In order to reproduce the problem, perform the following steps:
Change the language to Malayalam 
Click on the show inscript keyboard option from the menu
In OO writer, choose a font which supports malayalam font
Now enter the following characters in the specified order
Enter the character ോ from the keyboard
Now press shift and enter the character ള
Note that the Consonant is being added in the second step while the matra is the first step and OO writer does not understant
Repeat step 4 but invert steps a and b and see that this being the right order, the characters are printer correctly.
