Re: VMs: Image Source, Accuracy of Transcriptions

["Larry Roux" <LRoux@xxxxxxx>]

Now, while I agree that many "ii"s in EVA are a single character, Courier has its' own problems.

For instance, EVA "ckh" in Courier is simply "x".  That is losing information.  and "il" is just G?  iil is H.  WAY too much data is lost.  While EVA breaks characters up too much at times it is FAR better than Courier.

But we could argue this till the cows come home.  Until someone decodes the manuscript noone can guess exactly what the character set really is.  

Noone should feel bad about WHATEVER character set they use.
