In the present paper we investigate infinite words for which the set of subwords occurring infinitely often is a regular language. Among these infinite words we characterise those which are eventually recurrent. Furthermore, we derive some results comparing the asymptotics of $f(ξ,n)$ to the information content of sets of finite or infinite words related to $ξ$. Finally, we give a simplified proof of Theorem 6 of [18]. rv:
