Another phenomenon is how new glyph types appear along the way. I have already earlier decided to add such at the end of the glyph dictionary, while at the same time not change anything in the glyph catalogue. The 89th position in the GD system received a special little note to focus the attention of the reader on this fact:

Earlier I had located pito there (at GD89), but I moved pito to the next line in the table, the first line in the glyph dictionary which will be unnumbered. (In the data program for the glyph catalogue I have used GD89-91 for special purposes, viz. for listing glyphs which 'do not fit the catalogue structure', 'seem to be partly destroyed and cannot be identified' respectively for glyphs 'incorporating features which do not fit the catalogue structure'. But we need not bother about that, no GD:s with numbers beyond 88 are mentioned in the main page of the glyph catalogue.)
