HyphenDicts

This is an updated/modernized version of a small hack I previously posted here:

https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...80#post3004080

It moves the hyphenation dictionaries from the system partition to the user partition in .addons/hyphendicts/ so you can edit them easily, and even add new ones for other languages [whether Kobo will actually use them is another matter], or disable hyphenation altogether by removing/renaming the dictionary files.

Filenames for hyphenation dictionaries must be like hyph_xx_YY.dic, all other files will be ignored.

To uninstall, create .addons/hyphendicts/uninstall

Note that uninstalling will not restore the original hyphenation dictionaries... you get those with every firmware update, or just keep a backup of the original files and put them in .addons/hyphendicts/ before uninstalling.

Update: Didn't work for GloHD/KA1
