Correct.  The same is with "ch".  There are plenty of cases (too many to be errors) of other combinations (ah, co, etc).

I would agree that what we tend to call <iin> is sometimes <iin> sometimes <un> and sometimes <w> but one cannot say that <iin> is always a single glyph.

Hi Dennis,
The <iin> example is not convincing (to me). Not very long ago, I posted 
several examples of words just ending in <n> and not being preceeded by <i>.
Moreover, one of the signatures on the first page reads <ydaraishy>, so <i> 
must represent something on its own too.
The problem of defining the character set is not that straightforward as some 
have suggested before.

Cheers,

Gabriel
