Character entropy of Voynichese

[Torsten]

As a sidenote, at present no rules extracted or proposed do concern the gallows coverage. Neither it is accounted for in any statistical computation over the text.

It possible to name plenty of rules concerning the use of gallows. For instance paragraph-initial lines start in 86 % of the cases with a gallow glyph. Paragraph-initial lines contain more words using gallow glyphs. Words containing a gallow glyph are on average longer. The glyphs p and f are frequent for the first line of a paragraph but rare anywhere else. The glyphs t and p are more commonly used at the beginning of words then expected. Words rarely end with a gallow glyph. If there is a word ending with a gallow glyph there is an increased chance for a second word ending with the same gallow glyph nearby. etc.
