 Subject: Re: VMs: Number crunching the Fincher window
 
 Hi Elmar,
 I thought of a simple square filled with Voynichese sentences (+ spaces) 
 with a window (I thought not necessarily 1 line in height) moving randomly 
 on it, too but I suddenly stopped when I found that the char frequencies 
 distribution of first characters of each word and last characters of each 
 word are totally different (and are totally different from the char 
 frequencies distribution of the whole VM).
 How do you think this problem can be solved?
 One can think that the moving window will only start at a space on the main 
 board, but this will produce fewer combinations of unique words.
 Bye,
    Marzio
