Oh, I see. I misunderstood the meaning of "followed by". I can fix
that by changing one function in my code:
def nextSV(s, idx):
""" Find the next short vowel, or ~ + short vowel.
s :: string to search
idx :: index to start from
Return: short vowel, or ~ + short vowel, or _ if no following short vowel.
"""
try:
if s[idx+1] in shortVowels:
return s[idx+1]
elif s[idx+1] == double:
return s[idx+1:idx+3]
else:
return '_'
except IndexError:
return '_'

I did wonder what it was for ;-)
