This dir contains files to produce TeX hyphenation patterns, using the tool patgen (included in most *TeX distributions). Usage: cd $GTHOME/gt/ make GTLANG=sme texpatterns *** Building sme-hyph.dic *** touch sme/hytex/sme-hyph.dic cp -f sme/hytex/sme-hyph.dic sme/hytex/sme.pat patgen sme/bin/hyphenated-wordlist.dic sme/hytex/sme.pat sme/hytex/sme-hyph.dic sme/hytex/sme.tra This is PATGEN, Version 2.4 (TeX Live 2011/MacPorts 2011_5) left_hyphen_min = 1, right_hyphen_min = 2, 41 letters 0 patterns read in pattern trie has 334 nodes, trie_max = 427, 0 outputs When asked, answer with the following values (integers with spaces between): hyph_start, hyph_finish: 1 2 pat_start, pat_finish: 2 4 good weight, bad weight, threshold: 1 1 1 You may have to answer the last two questions twice, the second time after some processing. Finally, you may print a hyphenated test file by answering 'y' to the final question. That's it.
