Geoffrey, I know this. I am so intimately acquainted with VMS text that I can see at a glance which patterns are "legal" and which are not.
But René's challenge was for us to write READABLE/TRANSLATABLE text (not simply glyph combinations that look like Voynichese as in the Hyde/Rugg and Timm algorithms) and the text I posted above is grammatically correct text in a medieval language and I did it in less than 15 minutes.
Can you create readable, translatable text (at least a couple of sentences) in a medieval language that looks like Voynichese (or at least very close to Voynichese) in less than 15 minutes?
