wordaxe Description

Hyphenation by decomposition of compound words wordaxeis a Python library (formerly known as deco-cow) which provides Python programs with the ability to automatically hyphenate words using an algorithm which is based on decomposition of compound words into base words, and is named DCWHyphenator in the code.Currently, only German language is supported for the DCWHyphenator. Other germanic languages like Nederlands, Dansk, etc. that make heave use of compound words should profit from the algorithm as well - as soon as someone provides a word base.Apart from the DCWHyphenator, the library supports other algorithms as well: * BaseHyphenator is language-independent and splits words only after a few special characters (in particular, '-'). * PyHnjHyphenator is a pure Python implementation of the hyphenation algorithm used in TeX and OpenOffice. * wordaxe.plugins.PyHyphenHyphenator uses the pyhyphen library, which works a lot better than pyhnj on my computer. The library can be used as a simple add-on to the ReportLab PDF library, adding support for automatic hyphenation in the Paragraph line-breaking method.The documentation is still far from complete. For more information, look at the text document install.txt in the distribution and the samples. Requirements: · Python What's New in This Release: · This is a bugfix release. Wordaxe now works without warnings on Python 2.6. Fixed a few bugs that caused problems with rst2pdf.
