Please look again at the interlinear text and you'll see a large number of 
line codes which (unlike the codes you listed) were not documented in the 
header, but appear to have been allocated almost at random. The examples I 
give below are not accidental one-offs, but all appear in structured blocks 
of lines (though with an apparently unstructured choice of letter).

Of course, there may be some historical reason - FSG, etc? - for these, but 
I'm not aware of it.

Any ideas, anyone? Rene?

Cheers, .....Nick Pelling.....
