Hi,

first I'd like to ask you to use the mailing list, so that other users
can have a look to your question too.

Yes, that's right. The lines are only for your own help. In future I
plan an automatic determination of upper and lower case characters. But
right now there is only a recognition of raw shapes. For me I had the 9
/ g problem too. So I decided to write the g slightly other.

An other solution would be to define the numbers as special characters.
In this case they need to be written in the special characters field.

Yes that's right.

There are always two definition of every character. You can change them
both. But if you overwrite both than my definition will be overwritten
too. I have configured the default to have always two defintion to get
more acuracy. But they both should be similar to work acurat.

You can edit /etc/rosetta.conf

There are defined the "repetionions" for every character and also the
group they are assigned to. After changing the config you should delete
the database and recreate your own (delete
/usr/share/rosetta/rosetta.db) and ~/.rosetta/rosetta.db.

The first one is the system wide default database (will be used until
you trained it by your own).

Rosetta is still in an experimental state. If it seems that considering
the relative position will be usefull I'll perhaps add this support as
an option.

Bye,

Ole
