-.SH NAME
-patgen \- generate patterns for TeX hyphenation
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B patgen
-.I dictionary_file pattern_file patout_file translate_file
-.\"=====================================================================
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive.
-See also the Info file or manual
-.I "Web2C: A TeX implementation"
-available as part of the TeX Live distribution or at
-.IR http://tug.org/web2c .
-.PP
-The
-.I patgen
-program reads the
-.I dictionary_file
-containing a list of hyphenated words and the
-.I pattern_file
-containing previously-generated patterns (if any) for a particular
-language (not a complete TeX source file; see below), and produces the
-.I patout_file
-with (previously- plus newly-generated) hyphenation patterns for that
-language. The
-.I translate_file
-defines language specific values for the parameters
-.IR left_hyphen_min " and " right_hyphen_min
-used by \*(TX's hyphenation algorithm and the external representation
-of the lower and upper case version(s) of all \`letters' of that
-language. Further details of the pattern generation process such as
-hyphenation levels and pattern lengths are requested interactively from
-the user's terminal. Optionally
-.I patgen
-creates a new dictionary file
-.BI pattmp. n
-showing the good and bad hyphens found by the generated patterns, where
-.I n
-is the highest hyphenation level.
-.PP
-The patterns generated by
-.I patgen
-can be read by
-.B initex
-for use in hyphenating words. For a real-life example of
-.IR patgen 's
-output, see
-.IR $TEXMFMAIN/tex/generic/hyphen/hyphen.tex ,
-which contains the patterns \*(TX uses for English by default.
-At some sites, patterns for (many) other languages may be available,
-and the local
-.B tex
-programs may have them preloaded.
-.PP
-All filenames must be complete; no adding of default
-extensions or path searching is done.
-.\"=====================================================================
-.SH FILE FORMATS
-.TP \w'@@'u+2n
-.B Letters
-When
-.B initex
-digests hyphenation patterns, \*(TX first expands macros and the result
-must entirely consist of digits (hyphenation levels), dots (\`.', edge
-of a word), and letters. In pattern files for non-English languages
-letters are often represented by macros or other expandable constructs.
-For the purpose of
-.I patgen
-these are just character sequences, subject to the condition that no
-such sequence is a prefix of another one.
-.TP \w'@@'u+2n
-.B Dictionary file
-A dictionary file contains a weighted list of hyphenated words, one word
-per line starting in column 1. A digit in column 1 indicates a global
-word weight (initially =1) applicable to all following words up to the
-next global word weight. A digit at some intercharacter position
-indicates a weight for that position only.
-
-The hyphens in a word are indicated by \`-', \`*', or \`.' (or their
-replacements as defined in the translate file) for hyphens yet to be
-found, \`good' hyphens (correctly found by the patterns), and \`bad'
-hyphens (erroneously found by the patterns) respectively; when reading a
-dictionary file \`*' is treated like \`-' and \`.' is ignored.
-.TP
-.B Pattern file
-A pattern file contains only patterns in the format above, e.g., from a
-previous run of patgen. It may \fInot\fR contain any \*(TX comments or
-control sequences. For instance, this is not a valid pattern file:
-.nf
-
-% this is a pattern file read by TeX.
-\\patterns{%
- .\|.\|.
-}
-.fi
-It can only contain the actual patterns, i.e., the `.\|.\|.'.
-.TP
-.B Translate file
-A translate file starts with a line containing the values of
-.I left_hyphen_min
-in columns 1-2,
-.I right_hyphen_min
-in columns 3-4, and either a blank or the replacement for one of the
-"hyphen" characters \`-', \`*', and \`.' in columns 5, 6, and 7. (Input
-lines are padded with blanks as for many \*(TX related programs.)
-
-Each following line defines one \`letter': an arbitrary delimiter
-character in column 1, followed by one or more external representations
-of that character (first the \`lower' case one used for output), each
-one terminated by the delimiter and the whole sequence terminated by
-another delimiter.
-
-If the translate file is empty, the values
-.IR left_hyphen_min "=2, " right_hyphen_min "=3,"
-and the 26 lower case letters
-.BR a .\|.\|. z
-with their upper case representations
-.BR A .\|.\|. Z
-are assumed.
-.TP
-.B Terminal input
-After reading the
-.I translate_file
-and any previously-generated patterns from
-.IR pattern_file ,
-.I patgen
-requests input from the user's terminal.
-
-First the integer values of
-.IR hyph_start " and " hyph_finish ,
-the lowest and highest hyphenation level for which patterns are to be
-generated. The value of
-.I hyph_start
-should be larger than any hyphenation level already present in
-.IR pattern_file .
-
-Then, for each hyphenation level, the integer values of
-.IR pat_start " and " pat_finish ,
-the smallest and largest pattern length to be analyzed, as well as
-.IR "good weight" ", " "bad weight" ", and " threshold ,
-the weights for good and bad hyphens and a weight threshold for useful
-patterns.
-
-Finally the decision (\`y' or \`Y' vs. anything else) whether or not to
-produce a hyphenated word list.
