I've been just getting to play with the Regex Functions and am loving it so far.

I am completely useless at this sort of thing but wondered whether a function could be written that could identify words not in the dictionary and check to see if they could be split into two known words.*

The hyphen function seems to do something similar so I thought I would consult the more 'function-minded' here for ideas.

* Yes I am aware of the possible pitfalls.
