Folks,
I've just fixed some hyphenation issues.
o The `.hy' request should now work as documented (again).
Additionally, I've added values 16 and 32 to hyphenate before the
last and after the first character, respectively. There exist
languages (most notably Greek) that indeed allow (and use) such
hyphenation points.
o I've also updated all default values for `.hy' in all macro packages
to make them less strict, following the values as set up during the
generation of the US English hyphenation patterns (TeX values
\lefthyphenmin=2, \righthyphenmin=3; this corresponds to `.hy'
value 4).
The only macro package I haven't touched is `mom', since this bundle
has a dedicated maintainer :-) Peter, please have a look and adjust
it accordingly!
Please test.
Werner
PS: Issue #53196 isn't fixed yet.
