All the best, --stolfi

It would certainly be interesting to see what kind of purely statistically generated chunks would result. I'll see where I can get a sufficiently large corpus.

Actually "Pt" lines are on the same physical line as the previous paragraph line.

In some cases free-floating words look more like labels than lines to me:
<f68r1.5,@Pb>    yky
<f68r1.6,+Pb>    dary
<f68r1.7,+Pb>    chkchykoly

All single free-floating words should probably be removed:
<f84v.42,@Pb>    okar
<f84v.43,+Pb>    ydairol
<f84v.44,+Pb>    ychckhy
<f84v.45,+Pb>    dshedy
<f84v.46,@Pb>    okchdy
<f84v.47,+Pb>    solchey
<f84v.48,+Pb>    dairoldy
<f84v.49,+Pb>    darchy
<f84v.50,+Pb>    yskhy
<f84v.51,+Pb>    ochedy

You're right, the result would probably be more accurate then. Maybe it would be best to only process +P0> lines?

You need to display the ratio of observed ocurrences to the number that would be expected if the start and end 'chunks' were distributed randomly. If then it appears that there is general parity then it would indicate that there is nothing significant.

Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean.
