You will have to explain what you mean by "repertoire". I would consider the Tranchedino collection as a whole to be a repertoire since they share a similar function, time, and structure, and have been brought together as a group, but I get the feeling that's not what you mean.
Are you referring to the lookup table of full words (sometimes called a glossary) that accompanies each cipher?

I am looking forward to seeing your examples of Voynichese homophones, nulls, and "repertoire". I am particularly interested in how you recognized them and how you tell them apart.
