[Sw-l] Transformation from SymbolIds to SWU with information of dominant/rezessiv hand

[Stephen Slevinski]

Hi Uta,

The temporal prefix is available in both character sets of Formal 
SignWriting in ASCII (FSW) and SignWriting in Unicode (SWU).
These sets are equivalent and contain the same information.

There is no way to automate the spelling on the temporal prefix.
It can not be derived from the spatial signbox information.
It is a subjective analysis using a specific theory of sorting.

I know of one project that tried to automate this by making a few rules 
and assumptions, but it didn't work.
