 * `.L<nn>`

+**notes about letter groups**
+
+There can be up to 200 items in one letter group.
 
 When matching a word, firstly the 2-letter group for the two letters at
 the current position in the word (if such a group exists) is searched,
 and then the single-letter group. The highest scoring rule in either of
 those two groups is used.
 
+`~` Letter in letter group means, that there can be no letter in this group 
+    at the beginning or end of the word. 
+
+_For example:_
+
+```
+.L01 ~ b c
+
+.group a
+  L01) a      i  // A
+       a (L01 u  // B
+```
+following rules will match for words:
