While the timing symbols do work well for that and can be used as a convention for those purposes, I don’t find myself using them in my typical writing. (Val did find me using “~” for a couple dictionary entires, though. Ha! It was a test for entires of what most people call classifiers, which I think will work for my purposes.)</div><div><br></div><div>Having said that, I think you using “~” to mean the second hand stays in place is fine.

I haven’t really gotten into the new searching of OR search query as I need to update to the core modules that Steve created, but it did get me thinking about how using a NOT search query might make it possible to search for signs that don’t include left hand (white arrowhead) or unit movement (general arrowhead) arrows. That could be used to find the 2-handed signs where the <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">recessive</span> hand doesn’t move. Of course the search would have to make sure it doesn’t include 1-handed signs in some fashion for it to work. But if this were possible, it could make it so you don’t have to have any special symbol for the type of signs you want to be found. The same method of searching could also be used for finding if the movements are the same or opposite for both hands.<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)"> </span><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">Just a thought.</span></div><div><br><div>

<br>
Today I posted a new revision of the internet draft: <br>
draft-slevinski-formal-signwriting.<br>
It includes two changes.<br>
<br>
First, I've removed part of the styling string for individual symbol <br>
zoom and offset.<br>
When I first added this feature, I thought it was a good idea.<br>
However, this feature creates problems and complicates simple processing.<br>
Last month I finally realized why it was such a problem.<br>
I couldn't find any workable solutions, so I decided to remove it.<br>
I will be updating the available software packages in the near future.<br>
One step back, two steps forward.<br>
<br>
Second, I've added a proposal for a new "null symbol".<br>
This was inspired by discussions with Adam Frost and his ideas about <br>
sorting.<br>
Talking with Val, this is a long standing issue.<br>
I'm still thinking through the issue, but I think this is a good fix.<br>
You can read more about it here:<br>
