Quote:- how to recombine glyphs in order to increase entropy? I did some very initial experiments with this that were quite promising, but the number of possible permutations is a big problem here.

• I preferred to use the value h2/h1 because this gives the text's realized h2 as a percentage of its highest possible h2. So very much simplified a text with for example (h2/h1=0.5) reaches 50% of its maximal h2. You cannot compare h2 outright because h1 has to be taken into account as well (at least, this is what I took from Anton's teachings, and it seemed to work out in practice as well).
  
• My strategy was basically to introduce new characters to replace common letter groups. This did raise h2, but h1 as well since I was inflating the alphabet
  
• Cumulative changes interact in an unpredictable way. The first couple of changes you make might actually reinforce each other, with all changes combined resulting in a greater h2/h1 increase than the sum of their separate effects. After a while, however, the inflated alphabet takes its toll and I was unable to further raise h2/h1. So in the beginning you might get great results but after a few changes there are already diminishing returns, until you reach a critical point where little to no increase is possible.
