Description: German language (and other) hyphenation algorithms
Wordaxe allows Python programs to automatically hyphenate text using an
algorithm based on decomposing compound words into base words.
.
The algorithm is suitable for any language that extensively uses closed-form
compound words, as long as a base word list is provided. Currently such a list
only exists for German.
.
In addition, wordaxe implements other algorithms:
.
* a language-independent algorithm that only hyphenates at a few special
characters (in particular, '-').
* a (currently incomplete) port of the TeX hyphenation algorithm to pure
Python.
* a wrapper for the pyHnj library (called python-hyphen in Debian).
.
Wordaxe integrates with the ReportLab library to provide automatic hyphenation
for the Paragraph line-breaking method.
