`_`	(the underscore) is the placeholder for exactly one character.
`%`	(the percent sign) is the placeholder for no, one or more than one character.
`%%`	(two percent signs) is the placeholder for no, one or more than one character, but not for blank space (so that a search ends at word boundaries).

143r–⁠169v	‘Incipit Centiloquium Ptholomei. Dixit Ptolomeus: Iam scripsi tibi, Iesuiro (!), libros de hoc quod operantur stelle in hoc seculo… Scientia stellarum ex te et ex illis est… Quod dixit Ptolomeus, ex te et illis, significat quod qui res futuras prenoscere desiderat — (168v) …precor ut te… die mensis… 5305. … cuius prima… quinta dominus Al… — (169r) … erunt quam… quidquid ip…. Dix… sperma… in hora inf… — … erit locus… tus et hoc… pro me… medicus etc. … <1>456 etc. … ac astrologus.’ = Abuiafar Hamet filius Joseph, 〈Commentum in Centiloquium〉 (tr. Plato of Tivoli) (C.3.1.1) . The text ends with Pseudo-Ptolemy’s De cometis (B.4) on f. 168v-169r (see below) and Dixerunt Ptholomeus et Hermes quod locus Lune… (B.5) on f. 169r-169v (see below). No glosses. The damage to f. 165-169 (torn) makes most of the text from v. 86 onwards illegible.
168v–⁠169r	‘… cuius prima… quinta dominus Al… — … erunt quam… quidquid ip…’ = Pseudo-Ptolemy, De cometis (B.4) , as part of the Centiloquium (see above). The text is mostly illegible due to torn folia. No visible glosses.
