Codificación
This book was originally typeset in Gent, Belgium under guidance of the author. However, still a large number of errors remained. This edition normally tries to retain the original spelling of words, it, however, includes a number of editorial changes.
Missing reversed exclamation and question marks have been supplied.
In general, seemingly inconsistent spellings with accents are corrected to match the more frequent form, including:
| Original | Replacement |
| á | a |
| jamás | jamas |
| fué | fue |
| detras | detrás |
| mas | más |
| -ia(s,n), -io(s) | -ía(s,n), -ío(s) |
The last row covers many different cases, mostly past tenses, where it seem the accented form is more frequent in general, so that has been used.
In a few cases, the decision was made arbitrarily, as both forms where equally frequent:
| Original | Replacement |
| crímen | crimen |
| orígen | origen |
| imágen | imagen |
A few inconsistencies remain, such as:
| Original | Alternative |
| pais(es) | país(es) |
