+# We now store the Adobe Glyph List in compressed form.  The list is put
+# into a data structure called `trie' (because it has a tree-like
+# appearance).  Consider, for example, that you want to store the
+# following name mapping:

-# here's an explanation about the way we now store the Adobe Glyph List.
-# First of all, we store the list as a tree. Consider for example that
-# you want to store the following name mapping:
+#   A        => 1
+#   Aacute   => 6
+#   Abalon   => 2
+#   Abstract => 4
 #
-#  A         => 1
-#  Aacute    => 6
-#  Abalon    => 2
-#  Abstract  => 4
+# It is possible to store the entries as follows.
 #
-# it's possible to store them in a tree, as in:
+#   A => 1
+#   |
+#   +-acute => 6
+#   |
+#   +-b
+#     |
+#     +-alon => 2

+#     +-stract => 4

-#  A => 1

-#  +-acute => 6
-#  |

-#    |

-# we see that each node in the tree has:
-#
-# - one or more 'letters'
+# - one or more `letters'
 # - an optional value
 # - zero or more child nodes
 #
-# you can build such a tree with:
+# The first step is to call
 #
-#   root = StringNode( "",0 )
+#   root = StringNode( "", 0 )
 #   for word in map.values():
-#     root.add(word,map[word])
+#     root.add( word, map[word] )
 #
-# this will create a large tree where each node has only one letter
-# then call:
+# which creates a large trie where each node has only one children.
 #
-#   root = root.optimize()
+# Executing
 #
-# which will optimize the tree by mergin the letters of successive
-# nodes whenever possible
+#   root = root.optimize()
 #
-# now, each node of the tree is stored as follows in the table:
+# optimizes the trie by merging the letters of successive nodes whenever
+# possible.

-#   - first the node's letters, according to the following scheme:
+# Each node of the trie is stored as follows.
