/*************************************************************************
 * eval_word_spacing()
 * The basic measure is the number of characters in contextually confirmed
 * words. (I.e the word is done)
 * If all words are contextually confirmed the evaluation is deemed perfect.
 *
 * Some fiddles are done to handle "1"s as these are VERY frequent causes of
 * fuzzy spaces. The problem with the basic measure is that "561 63" would score
 * the same as "56163", though given our knowledge that the space is fuzzy, and
 * that there is a "1" next to the fuzzy space, we need to ensure that "56163"
 * is prefered.
 *
 * The solution is to NOT COUNT the score of any word which has a digit at one
 * end and a "1Il" as the character the other side of the space.
 *
 * Conversly, any character next to a "1" within a word is counted as a positive
 * score. Thus "561 63" would score 4 (3 chars in a numeric word plus 1 side of
 * the "1" joined).  "56163" would score 7 - all chars in a numeric word + 2
 * sides of a "1" joined.
 *
 * The joined 1 rule is applied to any word REGARDLESS of contextual
 * confirmation.  Thus "PS7a71 3/7a" scores 1 (neither word is contexutally
 * confirmed. The only score is from the joined 1. "PS7a713/7a" scores 2.
