	Don't forget, cth and the others are a convention to
represent something 
that *possibly* could be one glyph, or not!  Look at
the characters (glyphs) themselves and see if you still
think that.  

	k-t-p-f ,  consonants. Maybe so.  

	In CurEVA, p shows up as a vowel but none of the other
gallows show up as vowels in any transcription.  Here:

	But what else are you thinking of?  Do you mean that
you don't think the gallows are just markers for cipher
change?  (I've never liked that either, but that
because it doesn't look like a polyalphabetic cipher to
me.)
