        Hello,

would it be possible to define || for compound words to act as
\discretionary{-}{-}{-}? In Czech, the hyphen for compound words should
be repeated in the following line.

This mechanism is already present in the ConTeXt: use |_| like "bude|_|li". Unfortunately, AFAIK there are two drawbacks:


1) From some time the hyphen started to be defined
  \def\compoundhyphen{\hbox{-\kern-.25ex-}}
but for Czech is better:
  \def\compoundhyphen{-}
I intend to incorporated it to Czech support. (cont-cz.tex ?)

2) This kind of |.| does not operate inside with XML processing.
Here is minimal example sent last week:

-----
\defineXMLentity[hyphen]{|_|}
\starttext
  dojde|_|li
  \startXMLdata
    dojde‐li
  \stopXMLdata
\stoptext
------
