Take a look at the table I attached, in the braille indicators section. 
You will see what was set for firstwordital and lastworditalafter I 
copied the dot patterns from the original table. Also trry setting 
italword and lenitalphrase. I do want yo8u  and others to get more 
familiar with the tables.

I'm not sure if the liblouis you have handles these things correctly. 
There may have been some bug fixes.

Sure hope I can get the new Windows ports done soon. There are presently 
problems with some libraries that I have to sort out.
