[quoted lines by Lee Maschmeyer on 2010/05/08 at 13:33 -0400] >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".
I actually don't like either rule. This one may be better resolved in software. What's the precise rule? For example, let's say that the word were "contendedly" rather than "completely". Would the "con" be spelled out or contracted? -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God. Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Ottawa, Ontario | 2011 May 21 is the Day of Judgement.
