Obviously if I make a perfect copy that is of little interest, but it should be perfectly OK for me to copy bits and paste them together if and when I wish.
Again it seems unnecessary to prevent someone from looking at Voynichese as and when they produce their Voynichese like text.
These restrictions would certainly make things harder, but it seems to me to be completely unnecessary. The author of the Voynich could copy portions if he/she wished. The author of the Voynich could look at the rest of what he/she had already written. Why impose restrictions that did not apply to the author?...
Do it, however, you wish, Mark.
Just keep in mind that the bigger the bits, the less chance there is of demonstrating your assertion that filler text with Voynichese-like properties should be "relatively easy to produce".
Big bits do not make a distinction between meaningful or meaningless (filler) text, since we don't know yet whether VMS vords are meaningful or meaningless.
