By looking at the code charts on the Unicode Consortium site.  In
general, whenever one of the first codepoints of the script looked
something like "letter A", I used that.  Examples:

  10350;OLD PERMIC LETTER AN;Lo;0;L;;;;;N;;;;;
  10530;CAUCASIAN ALBANIAN LETTER ALT;Lo;0;L;;;;;N;;;;;
  11305;GRANTHA LETTER A;Lo;0;L;;;;;N;;;;;

Otherwise, I used the first codepoint that looked similar to most
others.

If there are some special requirements or guidelines for selecting the
representative characters, I'd surely want to know and document them.

Thanks.
