Awsome indeed!
I'm using the hyphenation feature for a long time, and it's always becoming better. Congratulations!
But there are still some strange results, and therefore I would like to install the hyphenation dictionary again. And then I read the Usage Advice in the README, and here are my problems (kindly asked for forbearance, I'm 50+):
"Hyphenation
Both - (? I only know the Extended)
plugins includes the ability to add a CSS file to each book enabling KePub hyphenation. The standard hyphenation dictionaries provided on Kobo devices are somewhat deficient for some languages; fixing this (or adding your own dictionary) requires a little work and requires that you can create gzipped tarballs (.tgz files). - Do I need to create one? How do I do it?
Somewhere - (o. k. I guess I'll find a place)
on your computer, create the directory structure usr/local/Kobo/hyphenDicts - How do I create this? Do I need to create folders with those names?
Download the LibreOffice (or OpenOffice) hyphenation dictionary for your language
This will be a file with the 'oxt' extension. This is just a ZIP archive with a different name. - (o. k.)
Unzip the OXT file and look for the file named as hyph\_[language].dic. (o. k.)
Copy the hyphenation dictionary to the hyphenDicts folder without changing the name.
Add the usr folder to KoboRoot.tgz - (where do I find this? Indeed, on my KT there is no KoboRoot.tgz file - you may call me an idiot, but I didn't find)
UNIX users (Linux, Solaris, BSD, Mac) can, from the command line, run tar czf KoboRoot.tgz usr/ from wherever you put the usr directory.
Windows users, you're on your own. Contributions of reliable Windows directions are welcome! - (Hm, indeed, I'm Windows user. Help! Please!)
Once you have created KoboRoot.tgz copy it to the .kobo directory on your Kobo device, - (see above)
unmount/eject the drive, and unplug the device. You will see a screen indicating that the Kobo device is updating; it is not, but this method takes advantage of the Kobo update mechanism to load the necessary dictionary files. Make sure you keep your version of KoboRoot.tgz around, you will need to re-apply it after every Kobo software update! - (well, I hope I would come around with this)
Someone has an instruction for Dummies?
