Hi,

It means that the rule applies to only that word. This is how "exceptions" to general rules can be implemented on a word by word basis without creating general rules that make no sense.

Under Tex hyphenations, these exception words are generally listed separately in the tex hyphenation file.

In the hyphenation dic file it htas words with .****,
****. and .****..
I know that:

a.) .**** means that the rule applies only to the
beginning of the word

b.) ****. means it applies only to the end

But What does the .***. mean? Is it:
a.) The rule aplies to the whole word

-- OR --

b.) it applies only to the middle of the word

Any Ideas?
