Hi all,
For multitudinous and fairly obvious reasons, furbelow should not use
the below sign.
But it's a little more complicated than that.
There is a rule in en-us-g2.ctb that states:
always below 23-123
At first I thought I should change always to word, but that breaks
words like belowdecks and belowstairs where the below contraction is
valid. So I changed it to sufword and, having examined my word list
culled from SCOWL, that seems to work properly.
Here are some examples of furbelow from my Web-Braille books:
mov$ away1 draw+ h} musl9 furbel{s ov}
furbel{s 0 an excell5t sub/itute =
furbel{s40 ,& he gob#d up ! la/ ( 8
elaborate furbel{s >.d h}2 0h} side 0
