As I said in my last email I can put exceptions in for those two words but what if there are more words that are not in my list of 99,000. I was just asking if you wanted to fix the largesign opp code so that if the separation of the words did not end up in words that are largesign for example if it didn't end up in something like "the and" or something like that then it should not add a space. For example if it ends up in "and antie" that obviously is not two largsigns and should not be separated. That could be handled in the translator and should be. I will add the two exceptions but I really think that should be fixed in the translator.

Note the spelling of opcode. It is an abbreviation of operation code. John On Fri, Oct 25, 2013 at 12:42:11AM +0000, Ken Perry wrote: > > For the following words the largesign opt code is a problem.
