Re: lynx-dev hyphenation

[Lloyd G. Rasmussen]

I know no one has coded anything yet for hyphenation.  Please keep the
following in mind:

Hyphenated words are more frequently mispronounced by speech synthesizers.
If you're going to add this functionality, I think it might be more useful,
because more time-consuming, if invoked only for the print-to-file option
and not for interactive rendering.

Remember that you don't want hyphenation to be active when saving source
files.  I have seen some web pages which were broken because they went
through a word processor which broke some lines (including long URLs) at a
hyphen.
