Philip, you pages are great (although of course I don't agree with our
conclusion re cipher × chinese).

You say that Bernhard Bischoff mentions one medieval book written entirely in
code.  That is big news!  I have often asked whether such thing existed,
and never got any answers.  

You see the point: writing in cipher is arduous work, so why would someone
take the trouble to encode a such a large amount of text (35,000 words)?
The fear-of-inquisition story is hardly convincing.  So it would be
very useful to know more about that other example mentioned by Bischoff,
and what were the author motivations in that case.

All the best,
