Hi folks,

What a mean, rotten, lousy lady that Guinever was! Not only was she
the bane of Arthur but I've got at least four spellings of her name on
my computer so she's the thorn in the side of braille translators too!
<grin> Guenever and Guenevere are already handled properly; the
attached patch fixes Guinever and Guinevere. Here are examples:

& notes7 :o c|<$ :5 %e f/ saw ,gu9ev}e
 ,l.elot & ,gu9ev}1 & ,paolo &
k+1 b 0 ,gu9ev}e's *ampion4 ,he sav$
  8,he call$ h} ,gw51 or ,gu9ev}e4 ,he
  8,y1h1 y1h1 'cause %e 0 ,gu9ev}e4

I have one example of mistrain:

tempt$1 & mistra9$ fell{s4 ,i am hop+

But a lot more examples of mistrial. I thought once of putting in a
rule to always spell out mistr, but came to the conclusion it'd cause
at least as many lines to be added. Mistress, for example, can in some
old books be spelled mistres and even mistris, so I figured adding
both mistrain and mistrial would be preferable. Here are some
mistrials:

 ,h(fman dcld a mistrial 9 ,s1le's
     wd reque/ a mistrial 2c _! mail _h
 >gu;t =a mistrial4
   ,sonny ,seil} mov$ =a mistrial1 b
 dcl a mistrial4
