Hi all,
yes, Rene is completly right, I don't think there is any use of such properties.In German for example, there no similarity between words, which differ just in one character.

(dose hose lose pose rose ... all different meanings).I it this just as an exercise (someone asked  for an algorithm to do that, and I can't resist doing that ;-) )

Dear all,

--- "Anders, Claus" <Claus.Anders@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
To be quite honest, this sort of analysis (which
seems quite useful although I would not yet know
what to conclude from it) would be best done not
in Eva but in a more synthetic alphabet, which
does not use multiple symbols for Eva-ch and Eva-sh.

It is very easy to convert Eva to Currier or FSG
once you've done it once. It is even very easy
to make your own analysis alphabet on the fly
(both just require the use of BITRANS, and a PC
that can still work in DOS).

Cheers, Rene
