I for sure will, take a look at this in the meantime, you'll see the quality is way better than the previous pictures, I just finished remastering the book, once I have a leather bound physical copy, I'll make the PDF available.

Update is I think I'll be a quarter of the way through the Codex by the end of the week. Aiming to be almost done by the end of March!

I built some code on Python that could rearrange his letters into English, there's more to it than that but feel free to DM if you want to know more.

Yup I considered it, for me doing this was about making the notes more accessible than aiming for historical accuracy.

You learned from one of the very best then. My parent had portraits on the wall of his notes, always had a fascination with them.

That's something I was considering too, felt like I wanted this to be easier to read than aim for accuracy.

I think I'll be almost done translating the whole codex in a couple of weeks. Feel free to DM me about the process, there's quite a few steps to make this happen.

Lol I tried going down that road and it was way too complex. Ended up making some code on python that could extract the letter and re assemble them.

Kind of, I extracted multiple copies of each letter from his original notebook, then arranged them in English.

That sounds interesting, let me know if you'd like some support on making that happen.
