Is this the same document? Lots of code sets included here. Many have a "line" character. https://books.google.com/books?id=dMxLAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA555#v=onepage&q=morkrum&f=false …

The Rowland Alphabet, page 561 has Back. What I would really want to see is the encoding used by Monotype.

The Google Books link is to Murray's same paper but doesn't include the Morkrum pamphlets that are also part of my scan

Wonder if the patent examples https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/e0/f5/ab/29b978e9872c40/US663996.pdf … https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/1e/00/fc/b11f961ae0da1c/US700330.pdf … are enough to reverse engineer the rest of the Monotype codepic.twitter.com/eOyqsdlhaj

First video here seems to imply that the Monotype would encode justification information to end a line. http://www.historyofinformation.com/expanded.php?id=635 …

But type casters and line casters were not teleprinters. And I was under the impression that most early teleprinters were ticker tape?

Which begs the question, when did we first have hardware that even needed LF and CR?

As far as I know the first page-printing telegraph was Murray's in 1898

If you're using a modified typewriter, you'd need BS (for combined characters) before you'd need to separate CR and LF.

If I make assumptions about buffering and synchronization, you'd want to separate CR and LF so blank lines can go faster than text lines.
