Re: neatroff for Russian. (Was: Questions concerning hyphenation patterns for non-Latin languages, e.g. Russian)

Hello! I can confirm that Neatroff (and Heirloom Troff) works well for typesetting Russian texts including hyphenation. BUT, I found them unsuitable for complex scientific texts as their ms macros are buggy and tbl is somewhat limited. Regarding Neatroff, I found that its hyperlinking capabili

Re: neatroff for Russian. (Was: Questions concerning hyphenation patterns for non-Latin languages, e.g. Russian)

Hi Ralph, I could not resist the temptation to procrastinate from my current work and had a look at neatroff. Really neat! Out-of-the-box, my test file russ.ms and TeX utf8 hyphenation patterns taken straight from my TeX installation produced the attached very satisfying result. Best regards,

Re: neatroff for Russian. (Was: Questions concerning hyphenation patterns for non-Latin languages, e.g. Russian)

Hi Ralph, thank you very much for mentioning neatroff. In principle, I am aware that there are other implementations, all with their particular unique features, but I never dived into anything other than groff so far (also due to the fruitful and friendly exchange on this mailing list), and neatr

neatroff for Russian. (Was: Questions concerning hyphenation patterns for non-Latin languages, e.g. Russian)

Hi Oliver, Are you aware there are other troff implementations than GNU's groff? Neatroff is one. Ali Gholami Rudi wrote it because he wanted better Unicode support for foreign languages, including right-to-left text. He seems very much of your mould in needs. A good summary of its features is h

Re: Questions concerning hyphenation patterns for non-Latin languages, e.g. Russian

Hi Branden, I'll take the route you suggest, i.e. install a 1.23.0 version where I'll place the macros; but I'll have to postpone this until Saturday --- so no earlier feedback possible. Best regards, Oliver. On 26/04/2023 10:18, G. Branden Robinson wrote: Hi Oliver, At 2023-04-26T09:19:41+

Hi Branden, thank you very much for the sharing your insight regarding groff internals. I tried your demonstration, replacing the text file with my own file (utf8-encoded Cyrillic), and I did not succeed to reproduce your results. I copied all Russian-related macros (ru.tmac, hyphen.ru and k
