Sorry, While I believe that the inital "f" and "k" for paragraphs/sentences
should not be included as parts of words - your statement "the character 'f' in
fachys is a character that only appears in the MS on the top lines of
paragraphs" is not entirely true. 'f' appears as a character (or set of
characters) many times.

That's my opinion and I may be wrong, but let me explain why I think so. The main reason is that you're working from a transcription file in Eva, and you need to keep a close eye on what it looks like in the VMs. Thus, a word like 'fachys', which you're interpreting as a 6-character word does not look like a 6-character word. Same with 'ataiin' which is on the same line. As long as you don't deviate from this path, there will be a dead end. Furthermore, the character 'f' in fachys is a character that only appears in the MS on the top lines of paragraphs. Whatever the reason for this, it has to be treated in a different way from the other characters. Anyway, this is like a maze, there are nothing but dead ends and there are still plenty of opportunities to turn in a new direction. Also, of course, there are plenty of opportunities to keep running around in circles, which is pretty close to what I think I've been doing :-) All the best, Rene __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
