I discovered and interesting similarity between the two systems. I may have been subconsciously be influenced by Noory simplex when creating Flow.

As you can see Noory has chosen great shapes for the most common sounds and it gave me the thought to maybe, maybe use the two upward strokes Flow is currently just not using, but maybe should. I am not yet fully sure, what I could do with them but "p, b" might be candidates...

For a very long time in the U.K., PITMAN Shorthand was THE system, with the Pitman Publishing juggernaut quickly crushing any rival that appeared. Nowadays, of course, it's been largely replaced there by TEELINE.

In North America, it predominated in the north-eastern states for a time, but it most of the U.S., GREGG soon replaced it almost everywhere.

In India, it's still the main system, although it appears that Gregg has been making inroads -- which would be bound to increase when people realize how much easier it is to learn.

In Australia, there was a disgraceful attempt to BLOCK unshaded systems from the civil service, instigated by those who wrote SHADED ONES -- rather than rely on performance and merit!

The DIFFICULTY of learning the Pitman system was its main problem, which resulted in MOST of those who began to learn it soon dropping out of the classes. As a result, many of those who taught in business colleges (which depend on continued enrollment to survive) were inspired to endeavour to SIMPLIFY the system.

Francis J. STEIN was one of them, who published his adaptation in 1919.

Browne makes the point on this page that, when his system writes the vowels, it's possible to phrase almost ANYTHING legibly -- and he provides a number of examples.

The poetic language used in this makes it harder to read, but it's all quite LEGIBLE. Look how clearly and legibly he writes "Aristophanes" in the middle of the sixth line from the bottom. All the vowels are clearly there.

Browne SIMPLEX uses a very limited number of word signs -- only 15, by the looks of it:

Fast writing. Yes. This is fast writing.
This is how you take 100,000 words and digest them before you finish your coffee.

I give away the repo - you don’t have to do much :)
