Hello.
With XeLaTeX, if you use the package "polyglossia", hyphenation
patterns (included in the package "hyph-utf8") corresponding to the
language you select will be applied. For instance:
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\setdefaultlanguage{sanskrit}
\newfontfamily\sanskritfont[Script=Devanagari]{Sanskrit2003}
I can see that "hyph-utf8" has patterns for several other Indian
languages:
http://www.tug.org/svn/texhyphen/trunk/hyph-utf8/tex/generic/hyph-utf8/patterns/tex/
which will be part of the next TeX Live. And François will certainly
be willing to add support for those languages to his "polyglossia".
Best wishes,
Yves

When we compose languages like telugu, sanskrit etc. using xetex,
we would like to have a means of producing paragraphs with
justification on both sides.
Normally clank is taken as an opportunity for word-breaking;
however, in these
languages perhaps we should specify (in addition to blank) that a
vowel
could signal a potential place for breaking. For instance, if the word
"sAhitya" is overflowing a line, it can broken either after "sA" or
after "sAhi" also.
Is there a way to specify this in xetex or with some latex commands?
