The numbers shown for the naive grammars do roughly correspond to what I get by just gzipping the transliteration (minus the metadata, line numbers, etc), I get something like 6.5e5 bits.
Yes, with pkzip it's about 68K. My algorithm compresses the text to ~59K with LOOP-Lay-oa, but this excludes the spaces, it only compresses the word tokens.

Thank you!

What I want to do next is to try to find a better grammar than LOOP-Lay-oa. The number of possibilities is enormous but maybe I can use a Monte Carlo algorithm to sample the grammars space. Will see what happens.
