YYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hmm. I should say ni . The problem are spaces . In this example I should expected that hy- => hy and some changes in glues and nothing else. Also text with \handletokens is ,well, "not so good " (ie horrible) .

I am not sure, but maybe that would be a good idea: gather 1,2,3,... tokens and pack them (as a whole) into an hbox until its width is greater than the frame width, output it, and repeat until there's nothing left. This would be very time-consuming (at least without lua), but it should preserve kerns etc. Also, instead of examining the width, one could probably pack the tokens into an \hbox to ... {...} and examine the badness. I don't dare to try to implement it, though - at least not at 00:17 AM;) Regards -- Marcin Borkowski (http://mbork.pl)
