Hello, Recently I wanted to prepare some Pāli text in the modified Roman script. The main problem I'm struggling with is getting Tex/LaTeX to hyphenate that for me correctly.
I tried to add support for Pāli language and hyphenation, mostly by copying and modifying files for Polish language (+ hyphenation rules generated by patgen, based on a list of Pāli words I hyphenated manually). I seem to have the language set up, but it still does not load the hyphenation patterns: Babel <v3.8m> and hyphenation patterns for english, dumylang, nohyphenation, uk english, usenglishmax, assamese, bengali, gujarati, hindi, kannada, malayalam, marathi, oriya, panjabi, tamil, telugu, sanskrit, polish, loaded. although I have the (I think correct) entry in language.dat: english hyphen.tex % do not change! =usenglish =USenglish =american [...] panjabi loadhyph-pa.tex tamil loadhyph-ta.tex telugu loadhyph-te.tex sanskrit loadhyph-sa.tex pali loadhyph-pi.tex polish loadhyph-pl.tex Can you tell me, if there is some kind of manual or at least a list of things to do, to add support for language/hyphenation? I couldn't find anything on the web. I'm currently using texlive 2012 distribution on Gentoo Linux. -- best regards, Krzysztof Borowczyk
