Oh, yes you got the right song. I liked the fact that
you were able to keep in some of the words I had to
drop out.
In C-a l>u after before or after any consonant and
word finally. It only remains initially or between
two vowels. I'm a little unhappy with the result of
preconsonantal L after a U which results in ulC>uC
I've thought about preserving L there or about
metathsasizing to get uuC /wuC/ but I don't like
either solution any more than I like comletely losing
the L. Time will tell, I suppose.
And my end scrambles EVERY character with a diacritic
of ANY kind. EVERY bloomin e-acute, every a-ring,
every u-umlaut, every o-slash, every n-tilde, every
ciricumflected vowel, every hachecked consonant, every
ogonek, every barred whatsis, every cedilla if it
ain't English A-Z it gets mutilated. ALL accented
vowels become question marks so when I see a question
mark in the middle of a word I know it wa SOME vowel
with an acute but I have no idea which one. Other
accented characters tend to become pseudo-Chinese
characters assembled from random bits of other
characters. I had long wondered if they were just
really obscure characters till I finally showed a page
to one of my co-workers and she assured me she'd never
seen a single character that appeard on that sheet.
Occasionally even consonant-plus-punctuation-mark
transmutes to something unintelligible. However, when
Steg sends text in Hebrew that comes through just
fine! Unfortuantely, I can't read Hebrew yet.
