Ahoi, (1) there's an ongoing thread on the German mailing list (TeX-D-L), if it would be possible to implement weighted(?) hyphenation, i.e. that some breaks are better than other, e.g. Do-nau---dampf--schiff---fahrt Wa-ren---wirt--schaft Eu-ro-pa---par-la--ment (In InDesign I can suggest such priorities if I add words to the user dictionary.) (2) Uses ConTeXt the same hyphenation algorithm as LaTeX? Or one of the newer projects? (perhaps SiSiSi?) (3) Further, I wonder why \hyphenation{} is case dependend - in my last project "Secretary General" was wrongly hyphenated, but \hyphenation{se-cre-ta-ry} didn't fix it, I needed \hyphenation{Se-cre- ta-ry}. Does that make sense? Greetlings from Lake Constance! Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)
