Follow-up Comment #33, bug #66919 (group groff): More later, but this part is easy:
[comment #32 comment #32:]
> Again I have lost track of your definition of reflexivity here,
I defined it at the end of comment #4. (If comments are ordered
earliest-to-latest, it's the first use of the term "reflexive" that comes up
in this ticket.)
The term is my way to distinguish between the two distinct things .hcode
does.
* ".hcode a a" (for any a) "creates" a previously unused hyphenation code for
character a.
* ".hcode a b" (for any a != b) sets the hyphenation code of character a to
that of character b.
I termed the former syntax "reflexive" by analogy with the mathematical
reflexive property. But I have no attachment to this term, so I'm happy to
change to a better one. It's just something (like "non-copy mode") that
needed a name for the sake of discussion, so I assigned it one.
