[This file is in koi8-r encoding] -*-coding: koi8-r;-*- 1) the following command shows useless (because of \lefthyphenmin=2) or incorrect patterns which set hyphenation after the first letter: grep '^\..[0-9]' ruhyph*.tex ruhyphas.tex: .×8Ó8Ô8Ò8 .Ï5ר4 .Ï4Ô×ÅÒÄ .Ï4Ô×ÅÒÖÄ ruhyphzn.tex: .Ï2Â3ÒÏÓ .Ï4Ó4Ô3ÒÏÅ .Ï4Ó4Ô3ÒÏÉ .Ï4Ó4Ô3ÒÏÊ .Ï4Ó4Ô3ÒÏÀ .Ï4Ó4Ô3ÒÏÑ 2) the following command shows useless (because of \righthyphenmin=2) or incorrect patterns which set hyphenation before the last letter: grep '[0-9].\.$' ruhyph*.tex ruhyphas.tex: .ÕÌØ5Å. .Ä×Ï5Å6Ë. ruhyphzn.tex: 1Ó2ÒÅ3Ä. 3) the patterns for the whole words shown by the command grep '^\..*\.$' ruhyph*.tex are also questionable (probably it is better to store them in \hyphenation list). Such patterns occur in ruhyphas.tex and ruhyphzn.tex. 4) to ensure that there will be absolutely no -xx breaks for English words when the combined Russian-English hyphenation is used, a changed English patterns should be used, with removed `strange' patterns matching the regexp "[0-9][a-z][a-z]\." (see the file enrhm2.tex). 5) [not a bug] should the main hyphenation files be sorted using `sorthyph' script? 6) Known cases of bad hyphenation (to be fixed by authors of corresponding patterns). All found hyphenation positions are shown. Bad positions are marked with `='. Please send additional examples of bad hyphenation for various patterns in this collection to email addresses given at the end of README.
