I was afraid of an answer "read the code" :-(

I cannot understand the code and apparently the wording in the readme is not
clear to me.
I don't understand what is meant by "finite state machine" and I have problems
with the term "transition" as well. Is one of the pattern a transition? And how
does a transition "consume" an input letter?

I was hoping to get an explanation of the algorithm with some examples, just
like Knuth's algorithm is easily explained given the example.

It wasn't clear to me that "Theory of the algorithm" explains the
OOo-hyphenation mechanism either. I always thought it is a "technical"
explanation of Knuth's algorithm. (As I've written, I don't understand the
language used therein). It is not obvious that these are different things.

##################
So if you don't want / cannot provide an "easy to understand/read" explanation,
then please at least add a prominent note that it is not Knuth's algo that is
being used, but a rather significant modification that is explained in the
"tech-talk" below the description of the TeX-Algorithm.
