How do you nactate..?

In Response To: How do you nactate..? (Nack Ballard)

In your excellent tutorial on nactation, you conclude with a tantalising teaser:

"Depending upon the level of feedback and enthusiasm, other sections might be added later to this tutorial for lower-case letters, numerals, other symbols, an annactated game, shorthand equity nactation, and a glossary of symbols."

Lest these additions are withheld for want of enthusiastic feedback, I should add my voice to the throng: for my money, nactation is one of the most important new innovations in backgammon. It is rapidly entrenching itself here and elsewhere as an essential shorthand for discussing positions. I'm sure I'm not alone in my eagerness for an augmented tutorial with sections covering your latest symbols (such as @).

I am particularly curious about the "shorthand equity nactation" you mention. Have you developed this further?
