standardized. Characters with macrons have been marked in brackets with
an equal sign, as [=e] for a letter e with a macron on top; scribal
abbreviations, as e.g. "It[=m]" could tentatively be expanded to "Item".
Underscores have been used to indicate _italic_ (for Greek, _spaced_)
fonts. A list of volumes and pages in "Notes and Queries" has been added
at the end.]
