Do you have a link?  I think updating is rather straightforward if I
have something to start with.

Thanks for the offer; right now I don't need that, I believe.

My solution of having rather thick slanted lines in the sori glyph is
based on the assumption that originally it was a sharp accidental
where the two beams now form a wedge instead of being parallel.  This
is at least the impression I get if I look at Vaziri's handwritten
documents.
