Hi folks,
Consider the sentence (read in grade 2 using en-us-g2.ctb):
He was in--completely in.
Now the almost identical sentence:
He was in - completely in.
The difference is that the first sentence contains two hyphens whereas
the second has space hyphen space.
There's a rule in the table making "in space hyphen space" translate
as "in hyphen hyphen." The attached patch adds "in space hyphen space
com".
The only thing I can't do via the contraction table is handle the case
where there's a line break in there. "He was in (newline) hyphen space
completely in." I tried adding "after \r" and "after \n" but neither
works.
Anyway, I believe this is a bit better than it was.
Have fun,
