Characters

  Many of the oddball characters listed in the Keying/Coding
  Guidelines appear in this book, e.g., the "ll" with
  cross-bar; the "h" with cross-bar; the "m", "r" and "n" with
  a final stroke looping back above the character; "g" with 
  a small vertical tick mark; etc. These should all be
  treated as simplex characters ("ll" "h" "m" "r" "n" "g"),
  as laid out in the Guidelines.
