>Dear colleague,
>
>you had asked about the encoding of the TITUS TS file. This is what the
>contributor, Mr Makoto Fushimi, replies:

> >>>>
>The input text is separated by me according to Weber's punctuation
>for the purpose of searching.
>The resolved sandhi are marked by | (7ch) and the danda in printed
>edition
>is / (2fh).
>Before and after "|" the words are usually changed, and input in the
>form
>which ordinary sandhi rules expect.
>The text was input for searching, not to reproduce a copy of Weber's
>edition
>on online.
>
>If you want Weber's edition,
>apply ordinary sandhi rules to the words before and after "|".
>Many cases you need to delete sentence numbers (and alphabet) for that.
>When there are words input in the form like {x1 < x2},
>choose "x1" in the bracket.
> >>     "{x1 < x2}" means that x1 appears in the text,
> >>     if no sandhi x2 appears, and sandhi can not be defined as a rule.
>(The second line latter part is not necessary correct.)
>Sometimes GLOS and other readings are added, remove them.
>Just a simple script, in Perl or Sed or whatever you like, would work.
><<<<<<

>Hope this helps you.
>With best wishes,
>J.G.
