Hyphenation
Hi,
I've got a Glo, still with firmware 2.4.0. I've read quite a couple of books in a non-English language (actually, in Dutch) and as far as I could see, the Glo did not know hyphenation. Then I installed an English and a German book, and to my surprise, the Glo did show hyphenation in both cases. Apparently, the firmware provides hyphenation for a few languages. How can I find out which languages those are, and, more important: is it possible to install hyphenation for other languages? |

-webkit-locale: it This piece might be key in using other hyphenation dictionaries. |

Thanks for that I'll put together a package with a different language later today and see if someone is interested in trying it.

Or try the attaced Dutch hyphenation dictionary which uses the OpenTaal hyphenation rules. However, it does treat punctuation characters as part of a word. It uses these settings:
