VMs: Is it Monday?



How many times do I rewrite the same line? The original email had the
correct wording -- please ignore the corrected one!

Doh!

	I meant...
Page/paragraph initial split gallows might correlate to a SPLIT-gallows (My
suggestion)

	Not an all inclusive summary of gallows -- feel free to add /modify this
list as you see fit...

cth, ckh, cph, cfh are not line initial
Words ending in 'n' are followed by one of the above 92% of the time
Words ending in 'r/s' are followed by one of these crossed gallows about 76%
of the time
Words ending in 'l' are followed by one of them about 82% of the time
Line initial 'y' + gallows might correlate to a cross-gallows (Nick's
suggestion, I believe)
Page/paragraph initial split gallows might correlate to a cross-gallows (My
suggestion)

Split gallows - about 11 of them...
	8 start a paragraph (as per above?)
	9 have ch anchors on both ends
	1 has no anchors
	1 has a ch anchor on the right leg only.

50% of all tokens have a gallows - 50% of which also have a 'ch', 'sh', or
'ee'.
50% of all tokens have a 'ch', 'sh', or 'ee' - 50% of which per above

First line of paragraphs commonly contain p/f style (although as Glen
pointed out there is at least one occasion when a p/f occurs on the last
line of text) {I believe Glen just found another 'title' that isn't as
separated from the text as it should be. (p/f's do occasionally appear in
the 'titles')}.

Most pages begin with a t/p gallows, which if separated from the following
word leave you with a more common token. About 25% of all t/ps are page
starters.

Well, that's all I can offer for today - Happy Father's day to those that it
applies to...

John.

What else has been observed about the distribution of gallows characters?
Could
some one on the list provide a short summary?
