Hi, the recent edit you made to Spud gun has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks.

Shorthand
Shorthand was developed beginning in 1884 and published in 1892 by Dr. Henry Sweet. It shares some similarities with the Gregg system, with which Current is contemporary. It uses more ink than classical systems, and whether or not it is fit like them for sustained verbatim reporting has never been established.

The characteristic features of the system are that it is script based, has independent symbols for vowels, and does not use line thickness or position.

There is little evidence that Current Shorthand was publicly successful. George Bernard Shaw wrote that the system's fatal flaw was its author's indifference to business.
