Mark, Phillip,
Perhaps I wasn't clear. I'm not looking for alternatives to variant
tags. I'm well aware of the -x- private use singleton.
What I need is a variant tag that is guaranteed to be unassigned. One
that matches the definition exactly:
variant = 5*8alphanum ; registered variants
/ (DIGIT 3alphanum)
Using -x- does not solve my problem.
Regards,
Gordon
