hi michael, glad you asked:-) I've written a little scripting xtra called "hyphenator" for this purpose. It uses a simplified version of the famous "TeX hyphenation algorithm", that many professional dtp-programs use as well (eg. quark). It can be configured to work with arbitrary (almost) languages by way of external "pattern" files (which are included in TeX/LaTEx distributions) You can download a beta version from http://dasdeck.de/staff/valentin/xtras/hyphenator/win/ unfortunately no mac version yet, but it could easily be ported (as soon I find someone who actually needs it, so please send me a note if you need it for mac)
