This is _precisely_ one of the things that VTT does.
It has no graphical user interface. It uses Unix-
like command options (you know, with minus signs).
One other thing it does is to select parts of the
file. If you ever wondered why the interlinear
file has stuff like $L=A or $Q=T in each page
header, you know once you've looked at VTT.

There's one frivolous option in VTT, which is
to create output in RTF, such that the Voynich
text automatically appears in the EVA Hand 1 font
and the annotations in Latin.

I wonder if your tool could be made to invoke
VTT and Bitrans, rather than replacing them?

Cheers, Rene
