Here are two follow-ups to the questions re particular letters used in some

I've had them on my list of things to propose. I was trying to find more
samples of tresillo to get a better idea of range of typographic
variation, and had just started on that when that work got interrupted
by other life events such as moving. I still need to follow up on that.

Some samples of cuatrillo and tresillo can be found at
