VMs: Porta with possible codebook indicators

["Jeff" <jeff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Porta cipher scheme where codebook numbers could be inserted into the text
to
act as abbreviation markers. The numbers would not be taken from the
plaintext
cipher table but a separate table of gallows glyphs. All gallows with a ?
below
them are of uncertain use. Note there are 21 ch & sh combinations.

Maybe the same number as the letters in the plaintext alphabet? Of course I
don't
have the full EVA as my sample and combinations such as shp, chf or others
might
appear elsewhere. If not then 21 seems a significant number to me.
