Woops! Thanks for pointing that out. That page moved after the most recent version of the correction manual. I'll fix it on Monday.
The correct URL is:
http://www.ling.upenn.edu/~kurisuto/germanic/aa_character_encoding.html
You can also get to that page by clicking on the "About" tab and then clicking "Character encoding standards".
> Also, while I'm here, I've spotted a special character which does not appear to be supported. This is an 'A' with a breve (semi-circle) above it. There are actually two on this particular page (one of them is actually in a Greek word). They can be found on page B0039 of Bosworth and Toller under the entry for "ancre"
That one is &a-short; . As I'm doing hand corrections also, I see that there are more instances of the short and long marks than I had originally thought. So I'd better add those to the manual also.
Thanks for pointing these things out.
