The ability of \TeX\ and Friends to use typographic ligatures has long been cherished by its users. Indeed, the automated and transparent use of typographic ligatures by \TeX\ and Friends is often offered up as one of the reasons for using these programs to obtain high-quality typeset output.
-However, even though the automatic use of typographic ligatures is highly desirable in general, there are words for which the use of certain typographic ligatures may not be appropriate. The \TeX book observes, on page~19, that the word |shelfful| may look better if it is typeset as \enquote{shelfful}, i.e., \emph{without} the ff-ligature, rather than as \enquote{\uselig{shelfful}}. Some other English-language words that would generally be considered to be good candidates for non-use of ligatures are \uselig{cufflink} and \uselig{offload}; compare their appearance with that of cufflink and offload. Observe that all three of these words are composed of two \emph{morphemes}: the first morpheme ends in an~\enquote{f\,} or~\enquote{ff\,} while the second morpheme starts with either an~\enquote{f\,} (in the case of shelfful) or an~\enquote{l} (in the cases of cufflink and offload). A \href{http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morpheme}{morpheme}, briefly stated, is the smallest linguistic unit within a word that bears distinct meaning; all words\textemdash other than nonsense words, I suppose\textemdash contain at least one morpheme. The words apple and orange contain one morpheme each, and the words apples, oranges, shelfful, cufflink, and offload each contain \emph{two} morphemes. Stated formally, the main purpose of the \pkg{selnolig} package is to provide methods and rules for an automated yet selective (rather than global) suppression of typographic ligatures that span certain morpheme boundaries.

+For English language documents, the need to suppress typographic ligatures that span morpheme boundaries does not appear to be a hugely pressing typographic concern, possibly because English doesn't feature composite words that frequently. However, in other languages, such as German, composite words are much more common. In these languages, there is naturally a much greater potential for composite words to feature instances of |ff|, |fi|, |fl| etc.\ character pairs that span morpheme boundaries. In German typography, a ligature that spans a morpheme boundary appears to be something that should be avoided at (nearly) all cost, presumably because the presence of such ligatures has the potential to impair seriously the intelligibility of the composite words.%\footnote{For German texts, I believe that the \emph{Duden} provides authoritative backing for questions related to selective ligature suppression. For English texts, I'm not aware of the existence of a document, issued by an official or quasi-official body, that prescribes whether ligatures that span morpheme boundaries should be suppressed. If anybody can provide such a reference, I would be happy to list it.}
+
+\TeX\ and Friends offer several methods for suppressing ligatures on a case-by-case basis. In \LaTeX, there are three basic methods for suppressing ligatures: (i)~insertion of an \enquote{empty atom}, |{}|, between the characters whose ligature should be avoided; (ii)~insertion of an explicit italic correction, |\/|; and (iii)~insertion of an explicit \enquote{kern}, e.g., |\kern0pt| or \Verb/\hspace{0pt}/.\footnote{Note, though, that the first ligature suppression method, \Verb/{}/, does \emph{not} work if the document is compiled with \LuaLaTeX, and that the italic-correction method can produce inferior results if the text is being typeset in, well, the italic font shape.} The \pkg{babel} package, when used with the \opt{ngerman} or \opt{german} options, offers the \enquote{shortcut} macro \Verb/"|/ to suppress ligatures. A drawback of these ligature suppression methods is that they must be applied separately to each and every occurrence of all words that contain unwanted ligatures. As such, these case-by-case methods are both time-intensive and tedious. Moreover, there's always a residual risk that some words for which ligatures should be suppressed will be overlooked in the editing process.

+There are also several preprocessor-type packages and scripts\textemdash I mention \pkg{rmligs} and \pkg{Ligatures-German} in \cref{sec:thanks} below, but others exist as well\textemdash that scan the input file(s) and insert marks (usually, but not necessarily, the \pkg{babel} \Verb/"|/ shortcuts) in the places where ligatures should be avoided. While ingenious, these preprocessor-based solutions suffer from several drawbacks which, taken together, may help explain why they do not appear to be in widespread use despite their usefulness. First, they add complexity to the document preparation process. E.g., if the document is being edited inside an IDE or integrated development environment, the input files have to be closed prior to running the preprocessor scripts on them; then the files have to be re-opened in order to recompile them. Second, the presence of \Verb+"|+ macros in the input may interfere with the work of programs such as spell checkers. Third, \textsc{afaict} none of the ligature-suppressing preprocessor packages I'm familiar with have been written to handle ligature suppression for English language texts. Fourth, their scope generally seems to be limited to the most basic f-ligatures (ff, fi, fl, ffi, and ffl), making them less than fully useful for fonts that provide further f-ligatures, such as ft and fft, or \enquote{rare} ligatures such as st and sp. Fifth, they usually require access to auxilliary programs (e.g., a \textsc{unix} environment and a \opt{perl} distribution in the case of the \pkg{rmligs} package) that need not be present on a given user's computer.

As such, these case-by-case methods are both time-intensive and tedious. Moreover, there's always a residual risk that some words for which certain ligatures should be suppressed will be overlooked in the editing process.
+What has \emph{not} been available so far is a \LaTeX\ package that performs selective ligature suppression while avoiding the drawbacks associated with the preprocessor approach. Such a package should provide lists of language-specific word patterns for which ligatures should be suppressed, and it should systematically discover, during compilation, all words to which these patterns apply and proceed to suppress the indicated ligatures. Such a package should, at a minimum, be able to handle the basic f-ligatures (ff, fi, fl, ffi, and ffl); given the increasing prevalence of ligature-rich Opentype fonts, it would be useful is the \LaTeX\ package were also able to suppress additional f-ligatures, such as ft and fft, as well as rare ligatures. The package should also be reasonably easy to extend, in the sense that users should be able to augment or modify the ligature-suppression rules to suit their documents' characteristics. The \pkg{selnolig} package is meant to meet all of these goals and criteria.
-What has \emph{not} been available so far is a \LaTeX\ package that (a) provides a list of word patterns and entire words for which ligatures should be suppressed and (b) systematically discovers all instances of these patterns in a document and applies the non-ligation rules automatically to all words for which one or more pattern matches obtain. The \pkg{selnolig} package is meant to address this need. The package is currently set up to handle non-ligation issues for English and German language documents by providing extensive lists of ligature suppression rules tailored to the respective languages. Of course, I make no claim as to the completeness of either list. The package therefore makes it straightforward for users to provide their own supplemental ligature suppression rules to treat words not already covered by the package.\footnote{If you come up with such words, please email them to me so that I can augment and update the package's ligature suppression rules. A suggested template for reporting such cases is provided in \cref{sec:template}.}
+The \pkg{selnolig} package provides rules to suppress \emph{selectively} the following f-ligatures, for both English and German documents: ff, fi, fl, ffi, and ffl\textemdash the \enquote{standard} f-ligatures that should be familiar to most users of Computer Modern fonts\textemdash as well as the~ft and~fft ligatures. The latter two ligatures, while not provided by the Computer Modern and Latin Modern font families, are frequently available in \href{http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serif#Old_Style}{oldstyle} (also known as \enquote{Garalde}) font families.\footnote{In some oldstyle font families, the ligatures \enquote{ft} and \enquote{fft} are rendered as \enquote{\sabon ft} and \enquote{\sabon fft}, respectively.} Oldstyle-type font families generally feature a great variety of typographic ligatures. Given the beauty and growing popularity of these font families, it's important to be able to make good use of many of their features, including the presence of ligatures outside the \enquote{basic five} set.
+
+In addition to supressing ligatures selectively for the f-ligatures mentioned above, the ligatures {\ebg \uselig{fb}, \uselig{fh}, \uselig{fj}, \uselig{fk},} and \emph{\uselig{ij}} are suppressed \emph{globally} for both English and German language documents. Exceptions are provided, however, so as not to suppress these ligatures for selected words of \emph{non-English\slash German} origin, such as {\ebg fjord, fjell, Prokofjew, Kafka,} and \emph{rijsttafel}.

Given the popularity of these font families for typesetting, the \pkg{selnolig} package provides ligature suppression rules for many of the ligatures provided by these font families.
+For English documents, the \pkg{selnolig} package recognizes two further options, \opt{broadf} and \opt{hdlig}. If \opt{broadf} is set, additional f-ligatures will be suppressed selectively. If \opt{hdlig} option is set, selective ligature suppression is performed on discretionary\slash rare ligatures such as ct, st, sp, {\ebg\emph{sk}}, \emph{th}, \emph{at}, \emph{et}, \emph{ll}, \emph{as}, \emph{\ebg es}, \emph{is}, and~\emph{us}. No rules are currently provided to suppress historic and/or disrectionary\slash rare ligatures for German documents.\footnote{A quick remark on the classification of typographic ligatures. The f-ligatures are generally called \enquote{common} in most families. Beyond this group, though, there appears to be little or no standardization across Opentype fonts as to which typographic ligatures should be labelled \enquote{historic} and which ones should be labelled \enquote{discretionary}\slash\enquote{rare}. For instance, the fonts Latin Modern Roman, Garamond Premier Pro, and Hoefler Text report having \enquote{only} discretionary ligatures. In contrast, the fonts Junicode, Cardo, EB Garamond, and Palatino Linotype all report having both historic and discretionary ligatures. The name of the package option |hdlig| is supposed to convey a sense of agnosticism as to how these non-common ligatures should be labelled.}
-For both English and German language documents, the {\ebg \uselig{fb}, \uselig{fh}, \uselig{fj}, and \uselig{fk}} ligatures are suppressed \emph{globally}; see also \cref{sec:global-nolig}. However, exceptions are provided in order not to suppress these ligatures for selected words of \emph{non-English\slash German} origin, such as {\ebg fjord, fjell, Prokofjew, and Kafka}.
+Of course, no claim as to the completeness of either the English or German language list is or can be made. Hence, the \pkg{selnolig} package also makes it straightforward for users to provide their own, supplemental, ligature suppression rules to treat words that occur in their documents but aren't yet covered by the package. Please feel free to email me such words, so that I can augment and update the package's ligature suppression rules suitably.

No rules are provided to suppress historic\slash rare ligatures for German documents.\footnote{A remark on the classification of various forms of typographic ligatures in OpenType fonts: There appears to little terminological standardization as to which typographic ligatures are labelled \enquote{historic} and which ones are labelled \enquote{discretionary}\slash\enquote{rare}. To wit, the fonts Latin Modern Roman, Garamond Premier Pro, and Hoefler Text report having \enquote{only} discretionary ligatures, whereas Junicode, Cardo, EB Garamond, and Palatino Linotype report having both historic and discretionary ligatures. Interestingly, none of these fonts report having ligatures classified as either \enquote{contextual} or \enquote{required}. }

-\LuaLaTeX\ natively supports the so-called \utf\ input encoding scheme; in fact, it is also the \emph{only} input encoding scheme that \LuaLaTeX\ knows about. The \pkg{selnolig} package assumes that the \TeX\ files it operates on conform to this input encoding method.

Older files, however, may use other input encoding systems. If your input files currently use a different input encoding scheme, e.g., \textsc{latin1}, you must convert them to \utf. Several methods exist for changing a file's input encoding scheme, Please see the question \href{http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/87406/5001}{How to change a .tex file's input encoding system (preferably to \utf)?} and the associated answers on \url{tex.stackexchage.com} for some possible methods.

-Good typography supports and enhances the readability of the typeset text. There are obviously a great many facets to how typography may contribute to good readability. One aspect is the ease with which readers can discern the \emph{meaning} of the typeset text and its constituent parts\textemdash words. Because a typographic ligature groups two or more characters into a composite glyph, it is natural for the reader to \enquote{read} a ligature as forming a single unit and, moreover, to associate the ligature with some part of the word's meaning. Whereas this mental association of visual unity and meaning can be helpful when it comes to discerning the meaning of single-morpheme words,\footnote{Examples of single-morpheme words containing a ligature are off, fit, flat, office, baffle, left, act, cost, and spin.} it \emph{may} detract from the word's readability if the word is composite and the ligature happens to span a morpheme boundary. Ligatures that span a morpheme boundaries \emph{may} impair the word's readability if readers experience the need to do a \enquote{double take} to separate out the morphemes used in the composite word.

-What exactly are morphemes? Briefly put, morphemes are the smallest linguistic units within a word that carry \emph{meaning}. Because words are, by definition, standalone units of text, each word contains at least one morpheme.\footnote{Please don't try to get me involved in a discussion of what it may mean to have words without meaning\dots} Morphemes are classified as \emph{free} if they can stand alone as words (e.g., cat, dog, sea, see), and as \emph{bound} if they can not. E.g., the letter~|s| in the words cats, dogs, and rivers indicates the plural forms of the associated nouns; because the |s| particle cannot stand alone as a (meaningful) word, it is a bound morpheme.

-\enlargethispage{0.5\baselineskip}
+Bound morphemes can be divided further into derivational and inflectional morphemes. A \emph{derivational} morpheme changes the meaning of the associated free morpheme in a fundamental way. E.g., the \enquote{un} in \enquote{untrue} serves to create a word with the opposite meaning of the free morpheme \enquote{true}, and the \enquote{ful} in \enquote{shelfful} indicates the word is a quantity measure (\enquote{two shelffuls of books on typography}, say).
+An \emph{inflectional} morpheme signifies a less fundamental change in meaning. In nouns (and, depending on the language, adjectives as well), inflectional morphemes can indicate plural forms (child vs. children, cat vs. cats) and other forms of declination.\footnote{In modern English, the virtually sole type of declination is to indicate plural status. In other languages, declination can also occur to indicate genitive, dative, accusative,~etc. forms of nouns \emph{and} adjectives. E.g., in German one says das schöne Kind, des schönen Kindes, dem schönen Kinde,~etc. The particles |en|/|es| and |en|/|e| represent inflectional morphemes associated with the genitive and dative forms of the nouns and adjectives.} In verbs, inflectional morphemes indicate conjugation, such as a change in tense of the verb. E.g., call vs. called, walk vs. walked, but also \enquote{swim} vs. \enquote{swims}, etc.

E.g., call vs. called, walk vs. walked, and also \enquote{swim} vs. \enquote{swims}, etc.
+Words containing more than one morpheme can consist either of \enquote{just} free morphemes\textemdash rooftop, newspaper, etc.\textemdash or of free and bound morphemes joined together\textemdash untrue, shelfful, childish, laughs, etc. Bound morphemes generally occur either as prefixes or suffixes to the word's \enquote{main part} or \enquote{stem} (the free morpheme). Prefixes almost invariably represent derivational morphemes (e.g., untrue, review, perform). Suffixes, in contrast, can consist of free, derivational, or inflectional morphemes. For instance, the suffixes |like| and |less| in dwarflike and leafless are free morphemes, whereas the suffix~|ed| in hounded and laughed is an inflectional morpheme.

+It is important to realize that not all ligatures that span morpheme boundaries are equally inimical to good readability. Consider, say, the word \emph{umbrellas}, which contains the ligature~\emph{as}. Note that this ligature spans the boundary between the free morpheme \emph{umbrella} and the suffix~\emph{s}. Nevertheless, I'm quite confident that very few will claim that the presence of the \emph{as} ligature detracts from the readability of the plural word \emph{umbrellas}. I believe there are two reasons why this particular word's readability is not impaired by the presence of a morpheme-spanning ligature. First, the suffix~\emph{s} is an inflectional morpheme: it \enquote{merely} serves to change the noun's state from singular to plural; clearly, most of the composite word's meaning is conveyed by the free morpheme \emph{umbrella}. Second, the ligature occurs at the very \emph{end} of the word rather than, say, closer to the beginning or middle of the word; by the time the eye reaches the \emph{s} character, most of the word's meaning will already have been perceived.

+Because not all morpheme-spanning ligature are equally problematic in terms of their impact on a composite word's readability, the \pkg{selnolig} package follows rules that leaves some ligatures untouched, while others are broken up. The package adopts the following broad principles: First, ligatures that cross the boundaries of two free morphemes are always suppressed. Second, ligatures that cross the boundary between a free morpheme and a derivational morpheme are also suppressed\textemdash with certain exceptions that are explained below. Third, ligatures that span the boundary between a free morpheme and an inflectional morpheme are generally not suppressed. In \cref{sec:german-rules} below, the third principle is shown to be particularly relevant for decisions related to the (non)suppression of ft and fft ligatures in certain German texts.

+\subsection{Sidebar: Morpheme boundaries, syllable boundaries, and ligature suppression}
-Observe that morphemes (which convey meaning) need not coincide with \emph{syllables} (which convey pronunciation and sound). Indeed, a word can contain several syllables but consist of only one morpheme (e.g., apple, orange, banana), or it can consist of only one syllable but contain more than one morpheme (e.g., cats, dogs, reads, reeds, seas, and sees). The fact that a ligature may span a syllable boundary within a word does not, by itself, imply that this ligature should be suppressed.
+Observe that morphemes need not coincide with \emph{syllables}, and hence that morpheme boundaries need not coincide with syllable boundaries and/or permissible hyphenation points. Indeed, words can contain several syllables but consist of only one morpheme (e.g., apple, orange, banana), or they can contain only one syllable but consist of two or more morphemes. E.g., the words \enquote{cats} and \enquote{dogs} each contain two morphemes, and the single-syllable word \enquote{twelfths} contains three morphemes (the free morpheme |twelve|, the derivational morpheme~|th|, and the inflectional morpheme~|s|).
-\enlargethispage{1\baselineskip}
+The fact that a ligature may span a syllable boundary in no way implies that the ligature should be suppressed. Consider, for instance, the German words Affe, Griffel, Kaffee, Koffer, Löffel, Muffel, and Schiffe: All feature a syllable boundary and hyphenation point between the two |f|'s. Nevertheless, none of the ff ligatures need be broken up, because the |ff| character pair doesn't span a morpheme boundary in any of these words. Or, consider the following German words that feature ft ligatures: bekräftigen, duftend, haften, heftig, Lüftung, and vergiftet. The ft ligatures are not suppressed because the |ft| pairs don't span morpheme boundaries.
-To wit, consider the German adjective \enquote{straff} and its associated forms straffe, straffer, straffen, etc.: the free morpheme in all of these words is |straff|, while the suffixes |e|, |er|, and |en| represent inflectional morphemes. Even though there's a syllable boundary between the two |f|s for all modified forms of the adjective straff, the ff-ligature is used for all forms because it doesn't span a \emph{morpheme} boundary. If TeX's hyphenation algorithm decides it needs to hyphenate the word straffen as s\kern0pt traf-fen in some paragraph to generate a well-typeset paragraph, it can of course do so\textemdash and break up the ligature in the process. There's no need, though, to break up a ligature pre-emptively just because the word \emph{might} get hyphenated.
+Should TeX need to hyphenate some of the words listed in the preceding paragraph to generate a well-typeset paragraph, it can of course do so\textemdash and break up the ff and ft ligatures in the process. There's no need, though, to break up a ligature just because hyphenation \emph{might} occur at that point. As always, there's no meaningful rule without at least one exception; in \enquote{Interlude~I} in \cref{sec:german-rules} below, I discuss what \emph{Duden} calls ambiguous cases for which ligature suppression follows syllable boundaries.
+To further highlight the critical importance of morpheme boundaries for matters of ligature suppression, consider the words single-syllable words fifths and twelfth. The ft ligature is broken up for these words because it spans a boundary between a free morpheme (five and twelve, respectively) and a derivational morpheme~(th). The fact that there's no syllable boundary is immaterial.

For these words, then, it seems advisable to suppress the st and sp ligatures even though, strictly speaking, no morpheme-crossing issues are involved.

+In addition, as is explained in more detail in \cref{sec:global-nolig}, the ligatures {\ebg \uselig{fb}, \uselig{fh}, \uselig{fj}}, and {\ebg \uselig{fk}} are suppressed \emph{globally} for English language documents. This is done because there seem to be no words of \emph{English} origin for which these ligatures do not span a morpheme boundary. However, these ligatures are not suppressed for certain words of non-English origin, such as {\ebg Kafka, fjord, and fjell}.

+For German words, the following rules apply when it comes to deciding which ligatures to break up and which ones to permit. These rules are built mainly from statements found in the \emph{Duden} and various websites that have taken an interest in this subject\textemdash with adaptations for the ft and fft ligatures.
\begin{itemize}
\item Case 1: Joining of two free morphemes: Ligatures are suppressed. Examples:
\uselig{Schilfinsel} $\to$ Schilfinsel,
%\uselig{Zupfinstrument} $\to$ Zupfinstrument,
-\uselig{Baustoffingenieur} $\to$ Baustoffingenieur,
-\uselig{Wasserstoffionen} $\to$ Wasserstoffionen; \uselig{Impffurcht} $\to$ Impffurcht,
+\uselig{Baus\kern0pt toffingenieur} $\to$ Baustoffingenieur,
+\uselig{Wassers\kern0pt toffionen} $\to$ Wasserstoffionen;
+\uselig{Impffurcht} $\to$ Impffurcht,
\uselig{Senffabrik} $\to$ Senffabrik,
-Ab\-\uselig{lauflogik} $\to$ Ablauflogik,
+\uselig{Ablauflogik} $\to$ Ablauflogik,
\uselig{Schorfflecken} $\to$ Schorfflecken;
-\uselig{fünffing}\-rig $\to$ fünffingrig;
+\uselig{Zwölffingerdarm} $\to$ Zwölffingerdarm;
\uselig{Brieftaube} $\to$ Brieftaube,
\uselig{elfteilig} $\to$ elfteilig,
-\uselig{Stofftasche} $\to$ Stofftasche,
+%\uselig{Stofftasche} $\to$ Stofftasche,
etc.
-\item Case 2: Joining of a prefix (whether a free or a derivational morpheme) ending in~|f| and a main word (free morpheme) starting with~|b|, |f|, |h|, |i|, |j|, |k|, |l|, or~|t|: Ligatures are suppressed. In German, by far the most common prefix that gives rise to the need to suppress various f-ligatures is the word \enquote{auf}, as in aufbrechen, auffassen, Aufführung, auffliegen, auffischen, aufhören, aufisst, aufjaulen, aufklingen, Auflage, Auftrag, auftreten, etc.
+\item Case 2: Joining of a prefix (whether a free or a derivational morpheme) ending in~|f| and a main word (free morpheme) starting with~|b|, |f|, |h|, |i|, |j|, |k|, |l|, or~|t|: Ligatures are suppressed. By far the most common prefix that gives rise to the need to suppress various f-ligatures at the junction of a prefix and main word is the word \enquote{auf}, as in aufbrechen, auffassen, Aufführung, auffliegen, auffischen, aufhören, aufisst, aufjaulen, aufklingen, Auflage, Auftrag, auftreten, etc.
\item Case 3: Joining of a main word (free morpheme) ending in \enquote{f} or \enquote{ff} and a suffix (either a derivational or an inflectional morpheme) starting with \enquote{f}, \enquote{i}, \enquote{l}, or~\enquote{t}.
\begin{itemize}
-\item Case 3a: Suffixes that start with an \enquote{f}, e.g., |-fach| and |-faltig|: The ff-ligature is suppressed. Examples: fünffach and zwölffaltig.
+\item Case 3a: Suffixes (bound morphemes) that start with an \enquote{f}, e.g., |-fach| and |-faltig|: The ff-ligature is suppressed. Examples: fünffach and zwölffaltig.
-\item Case 3b: Suffixes (bound morphemes) that start with an \enquote{i}, such |-ig|, |-in|, and |-isch|: The~fi and~ffi ligatures are \emph{not} suppressed. Examples: streifig, äffisch, Chefin, Chefinnen.
+\item Case 3b: Suffixes (bound morphemes) that start with an \enquote{i}, e.g., |-ig|, |-in|, and |-isch|: The~fi and~ffi ligatures are \emph{not} suppressed. Examples: streifig, äffisch, Chefin, Chefinnen.
I haven't found a clear justification for this rule so far. I assume the rule is there because unligated f\breaklig i and ff\breaklig i character pairs are potentially sufficiently unsightly to make them stand out as an infraction against good typography that's even more grievous than having fi and ffi ligatures that span the boundary between a main word and a suffix.
+\item Case 3c: Suffixes that start with an \enquote{l}, e.g., |-lich|, |-ling|, |-lein| and |-los|: The fl-ligature is suppressed. Example words: trefflich, höflich, Prüfling, Köpflein, and s\breaklig traflos.
-\item Case 3c: Suffixes (free or bound morphemes) that start with an \enquote{l}, e.g., |-lich|, |-ling|, |-lein| and |-los|: The fl-ligature is suppressed. Example words: trefflich, höflich, Prüfling, Köpflein, and s\breaklig traflos.
+\item Interlude~I: In ambiguous cases that could give rise to fl-ligatures that involve certain suffixes, according to \emph{Duden} preference should be given to \enquote{how the syllables are pronounced and how a word would be hyphenated}. For instance, \emph{Duden} says that the fl-ligature should be suppressed in the words Verzweiflung, Bezweifler, schweflig, and würflig.\footnote{%
+Note that the real suffixes in these words are |ung|, |er|, and~|ig|\textemdash not |lung|, |ler|, and~|lig|. Justifying the suppression of the fl-ligature for these words is thus not a simple matter of not letting a ligature span the \enquote{gap} between a main word and suffix.
+In my opinion, the rationale generally given for suppressing the fl-ligature in these cases\textemdash reliance on how the syllables are divided and how the composite words are hyphenated\textemdash is not entirely satisfactory. This is because, morphologically speaking, the main words Schwefel, Würfel, and Zweifel each contain two morphemes: a stem and the \emph{derivational} morpheme~|el|: \Verb+Schwef|el+, \Verb+Würf|el+, and \Verb+Zweif|el+. It is therefore not necessary, in my opinion, to create a new rule to justify the (non-)use of the fl-ligature for these cases. Given the presence of two morphemes in each of the main words, one could simply rely on the general rule of not letting ligatures span morpheme boundaries within the main words to motivate the suppression of the fl-ligature for words such as schweflig, würfle, and Verzweiflung, as their morphological components are \Verb+schwef|[e]l|ig+, \Verb+würf|[e]l|e+, and \Verb+Ver|zweif|[e]l|ung+.
-\item Interlude~I: In ambiguous cases that could give rise to fl-ligatures that involve certain suffixes, according to \emph{Duden} preference should be given to \enquote{how the syllables are pronounced and how a word would be hyphenated}, leading to a suppression of the fl-ligature. For instance, the fl-ligature is suppressed in Verzweiflung, Bezweifler, schweflig, and würflig. Note that the real suffixes in these words are |ung|, |er|, and~|ig|, respectively, rather than |lung|, |ler|, and~|lig|.\footnote{%
-In my opinion, the rationale generally given for suppressing the fl-ligature in these cases\textemdash reliance on how the syllables are divided and how the composite words are hyphenated\textemdash is not entirely satisfactory. Morphologically speaking, the words Schwefel, Würfel, Zweifel, etc.\ contain two morphemes: a stem and the \emph{derivational} morpheme~|el|: \Verb+Schwef|el+, \Verb+Würf|el+, and \Verb+Zweif|el+, etc. It is therefore not necessary, in my opinion, to create a separate rule to justify the (non-)use of the fl-ligature in these cases. One could, instead, rely on the presence of two morphemes to motivate the suppression of the fl-ligature for words such as schweflig, teuflisch, würfle, and Verzweiflung, as their components are \Verb+schwef|[e]l|ig+, etc.
-
-It's fair to say, though, that most modern German speakers would be only vaguely cognizant of the fact that the~|el| particle constitutes a separate morpheme in words such as Würfel and Griffel, and that they would be entirely unaware of this fact for words such as Schwefel and Zweifel. To be sure, the typographical convention of \emph{not} using the fl-ligature in words such as schweflig, Verzweiflung, and würflig does \emph{not} appear to be based on the fact that letters~f and~l in these words belong to different morphemes.}

This convention may also be applied to justify the non-use of the fl-ligature in words such as knifflig and mufflig as well as in the present-tense\slash first-person-singular forms of the verbs büffeln, löffeln, schaufeln, stiefeln, verteufeln, and zweifeln: these form are typeset \emph{without} the fl/ffl-ligature, i.e., as büffle, löffle, schaufle, stiefle, verteufle, and zweifle, respectively.
\item Interlude~II: If a word \emph{ends} with an |fl| character pair because an abbreviation is in effect, \emph{Duden} says it's OK to use the fl-ligature even if the~f and~l characters belong to different morphemes. E.g., in the abbreviation \enquote{Aufl.}, the fl-ligature \emph{is} employed even though the ligature should not be used for the full, unabbreviated form of the word (\emph{viz.}, Auflage).
-Although not mentioned explicitly by \emph{Duden}, I believe this convention may be extended to justify the use of the ff-ligature in the abbreviated word \enquote{Auff.} (full form: Aufführung\textemdash no ff ligature) and of the ft-ligature in \enquote{Auft.} (full form: Auftrag\textemdash no ft ligature either).
+Although not mentioned explicitly by \emph{Duden}, I believe the convention mentioned in the preceding paragraph may be extended to justify the use of the ff-ligature in the abbreviated word \enquote{Auff.} (full form: Aufführung\textemdash no ff ligature) and of the ft-ligature in \enquote{Auft.} (full form: Auftrag\textemdash no ft ligature).
-This convention further suggests (implies?) that it's permissible (a)~to use the ff ligature in surnames that end in ff, such as Orff and Hausdorff, and (b)~to use the ffi- and ffl-ligatures in abbreviated names, such as Steffi and Steffl.

-\item Case 3d: Word stem (free morpheme) ending in~|f| and derivational or inflectional morphemes starting with~|t|. Unfortunately, not much official wisdom seems to exist to guide this case, possibly because the ft and~fft ligatures are not (yet?) used as widely as are the other f-ligatures. The following rules should thus be understood to be somewhat provisional.

Unfortunately, not much official wisdom seems to exist to guide this case, possibly because the~ft and~fft ligatures are not (yet?) used as widely as are the other f-ligatures. The following four rules, and especially the second one, should therefore be understood to be somewhat provisional.
\begin{itemize}
-\item The convention mentioned in \enquote{Interlude II} above, about not breaking up an fl-ligature if it occurs at the very end of a word, applies to the case of~ft and~fft ligatures as well, i.e., they are not suppressed \emph{if} they occur at the very ends of words (or at the ends syllables), as in verschärft, gestreift, gerafft, Dahingerafftsein, unbedarft, and Unbedarftheit.
+\item The convention mentioned in \enquote{Interlude II} above, about not breaking up an fl-ligature if it occurs at the very end of a word (as in ``Aufl.''), may be extended to apply to the case of~ft and~fft ligatures as well, i.e., they are not suppressed \emph{if} they occur at the very ends of words (or word fragments that have separate meaning), as in verschärft, gestreift, gerafft, Dahingerafftsein, unbedarft, and Unbedarftheit.
+
+Note that the ft and fft ligatures span a morpheme boundary in these cases: the single-letter second morpheme, the letter~|t|, is an \emph{inflectional} morpheme that indicates a form of conjugation of the associated verb (viz., past tense and/or past participle).
-Note that in these cases the ft and fft ligatures \emph{do} span a morpheme boundary: the letter~|t| is an \emph{inflectional} morpheme that indicates a form of conjugation of the associated verb (viz., past tense and/or past participle).
+\item Should ft and fft ligatures be broken up in past tense and past-participle forms of verbs that do not end in~ft but, instead, in -fte, -ften, -ftes, -ftest, etc? Example words: |streifte|, |rafften|, and |schlürftest|. Because these suffixes are \enquote{merely} \emph{inflectional} rather than derivational morphemes, the \pkg{selnolig} package does \emph{not} break up the~ft and~fft ligatures in these cases either. Thus, the words will be typset as streifte, schlürftes\kern0pt t, and rafften rather than as streif\breaklig te, schlürf\breaklig tes\kern0pt t, and raff\breaklig ten.\footnote{I haven't yet come across any kind of authoritative discussion of this specific case. Should someone be able to furnish a good counterargument to the setting proposed here, I would be happy to change the settings accordingly.}
-\item Should ft and fft ligatures be broken up in the past tense and past-participle forms of verbs that do not end in~ft but in -fte, -ften, -ftes, -ftest, etc? Example words: |streifte|, |schlürftest|, and |rafften|. Because these suffixes are merely \emph{inflectional} rather than derivational morphemes, the \pkg{selnolig} package does \emph{not} break up the~ft and~fft ligatures in these cases either. Thus, the words will be typset as streifte, schlürftes\kern0pt t, and rafften rather than as streif\breaklig te, schlürf\breaklig tes\kern0pt t, and raff\breaklig ten.\footnote{I haven't yet come across any kind of authoritative discussion of this specific case. Should someone be able to furnish a good counterargument to the setting proposed here, I would be happy to change the settings accordingly.}
+\enlargethispage{1.2\baselineskip}
-\item It would also seem OK to use the ft-ligature in expressions such as \enquote{zu fünft} and \enquote{die zwölftschnellste Sprinterin Bayerns}: Even though the |t| character here represents a derivational morpheme, the ligature occurs at very end of the word or word fragment. In the case of the word \enquote{zwölftschnellste}, the argument for keeping the ft~ligature is based on the fact that the entire fragment \enquote{zwölft} serves a prefix to \enquote{schnellste}.
+\item Again appealing to the convention mentioned in \enquote{Interlude~II}, it would also seem OK to use the ft-ligature in expressions such as \enquote{zu fünft} and \enquote{die zwölftschnellste Sprinterin Bayerns}: Even though the~|t| at the end of |fünft| and |zwölft| is a \emph{derivational} morpheme, the ft ligature also occurs at the very end of the word or word fragment. In the case of the word \enquote{zwölftschnellste}, the argument for keeping the ft~ligature may also be based, in part, on the observation that the entire fragment \enquote{zwölft} is a prefix to \enquote{schnellste}; grouping the |t| character visually to its stem, |zwölf|, via an ft-ligature surely helps to enhance the overall readability of the sixteen-character word zwölftschnellste, right?
-In contrast, the ft-ligature should \emph{not} be used in \enquote{Beethoven's Fünfte Sinfonie} and \enquote{zum elften Mal}. Observe that the argument in favor of breaking up the ft-ligature in the words \enquote{Fünfte} and \enquote{elften} is \emph{not} related to the fact that the words happen to have two syllables and that the syllables are divided between the letters~|f| and~|t|.
+\item In contrast, the ft-ligature should \emph{not} be used in \enquote{Beethoven's Fünfte Sinfonie} and \enquote{zum elften Mal}. The argument for breaking up the ft-ligature in the words \enquote{Fünfte} and \enquote{elften} rests on the fact that the particles |te| and |ten| are derivational morphemes and that the ft ligatures are no longer at the very end of the word (or word fragment). The justification for breaking up the ft ligatures does not rest on the that the syllable boundaries (and hyphenation points) happen to fall between the letters~|f| and~|t|.
\end{itemize}
-\item Case 4: A free morpheme \emph{ends} in~|ft| (e.g., Saft, Kraft, Luft, Duft, Haft, and Vernunft) and is joined either to another free morpheme or to a suffix that's a bound morpheme. Example words: \opt{Säfte}, \opt{Saftladen}, \opt{Kraftfahrzeug}, \opt{Luftagentur}, \opt{duftend}, \opt{bekräftigen}, \opt{Haftung}, and \opt{vernünftig}. Because the~|ft| character pair doesn't cross a morpheme boundary, the \pkg{selnolig} package does \emph{not} break up the~ft ligature. Thus, the words are typeset as Saftladen, Säfte, Kraftfahrzeug, Luftagentur, duftend, bekräftigen, Haftung, and vernünftig. The fact that a \emph{syllable boundary} occurs between the letters~|f| and~|t| in some of these words should not affect the decision whether or not to employ the ft (or~fft) ligature.

+\opt{Säfte},

+The fact that a \emph{syllable boundary} occurs between the letters~|f| and~|t| in all of these words should not affect the decision whether or not to employ the ft (or~fft) ligature.
\end{itemize}
\end{itemize}
+In addition, as is explained in more detail in \cref{sec:global-nolig}, the ligatures {\ebg \uselig{fb}, \uselig{fh}, \uselig{fj}}, and {\ebg\uselig{fk}} are suppressed \emph{globally} for German language documents. This is done because there seem to be no words of \emph{German} origin for which these ligatures do not span a morpheme boundary. However, these ligatures are not suppressed for selected words of non-German origin, such as {\ebg Kafka, Sognefjord, and Dovrefjell}.

The first two macros are meant to be used in the preamble, to set up ligature-suppression rules on a document-wide basis. The latter two may be used, as needed, within the body of the document on an \emph{ad~hoc} basis to override rules set up by \cmmd{nolig} and \cmmd{keeplig} instructions.

The first two macros are meant to be used in the preamble to set up ligature-suppression rules on a document-wide basis. The latter two may be used, as needed, within the body of the document on an \emph{ad~hoc} or case-by-case basis to either supplement or override rules set up by \cmmd{nolig} and \cmmd{keeplig} instructions.
+
+The package provides four additional user commands. The instructions \cmmd{debugon} and \cmmd{debugoff}, described in more detail in \cref{sec:debugon}, serve to turn on and switch off logging of the activity of the \pkg{selnolig} package. The directives \cmmd{selnoligon} and \cmmd{selnoligoff}, described in \cref{sec:selnoligon}, turn on and switch off \pkg{selnolig}'s ligature-suppressing algorithms.
\subsubsection{The \cmmd{nolig} macro}
\label{sec:nolig}
-The package's main user macro is called \cmmd{nolig}. Each \cmmd{nolig} instruction, or rule, takes two arguments: a search string and a string that indicates where the non-ligation \enquote{whatsit} should be inserted. E.g., the rule

E.g., the instruction

+sets up a rule to suppress the ff-ligature in words such as \enquote{shelfful}, \enquote{bookshelfful}, and \enquote{selffulfilling}.\footnote{\TeX nically speaking, the \cmmd{nolig} macros perform their job by inserting special \enquote{whatsits} into the input stream whenever a pattern match occurs. These whatsits prevent the paragraph-building algorithm from replacing the affected character pairs (or triples) with corresponding ligatures. The package's \cmmd{keeplig} macro, described below, works by removing any nonligation whatsits from the input stream whenever a pattern match occurs, thereby re-enabling the use of ligatures.}
-It is possible to indicate more than one ligature suppression point in the second argument of a \cmmd{nolig} rule. For instance, one \emph{could} specify the rule \Verb+\nolig{Auflaufform}{Auf|lauf|form}+ to suppress both the fl- and the ff-ligature in the word Auflaufform and its plural form, Auflaufformen. For added flexibility, though, the \pkg{selnolig} package actually uses two separate \cmmd{nolig} rules to suppress the two ligatures in this word; see also \cref{sec:debugon}.
+It is possible (and permissible) to have more than one \Verb+|+ character in the second argument of a \cmmd{nolig} instruction.

However, the readability of your \cmmd{nolig} rules may suffer if you suppress that material.

-If you examine the \cmmd{nolig} rules provided in the files \pkg{selnolig-german-patterns.sty} and \pkg{selnolig-english-patterns.sty}, you'll notice soon that there's some redundancy built into the package's ligature suppression rules. For instance, the need to suppress the ff-ligature in the word \enquote{auffallen} is catered to both by \Verb+\nolig{auff}{auf|f}+ and by \Verb+\nolig{ffall}{f|fall}+. This redundancy is there by design, because not all words that might fit one pattern will also fit the other. Providing some redundancy of this type seems like a reasonable way to proceed.

-Having the macro \cmmd{keeplig} is very useful because it permits users to specify fewer and more general, i.e., less restrictive, \cmmd{nolig} rules; any Type-II errors that may arise from having \cmmd{nolig} rules whose scope may be insufficiently restrictive can be fixed by providing judiciously chosen \cmmd{keeplig} rules.\footnote{In the present context, a Type-II error is the suppression of a ligature that is, in fact, valid for the word at hand.}
+The \cmmd{keeplig} macro is very useful tool because it permits devising a (much) smaller set of broader, i.e., less restrictive, \cmmd{nolig} rules; any Type-II errors that may arise from having \cmmd{nolig} rules whose scope is too broad can be undone by providing judiciously crafted \cmmd{keeplig} rules.\footnote{In the present context, a Type-II error is the suppression of a ligature that is, in fact, valid for the word at hand. }

The ligature suppression patterns for English language words, contained in the file \pkg{selnolig-english-patterns.sty} and listed in \cref{sec:eng-listing} below, are grouped into four parts. The first two parts concern the suppression of f-ligatures. Part~1 provides a fairly limited, or \enquote{basic}, set of patterns that will always be executed, and Part~2 contains a broader set of ligation suppression rules that will be executed if the \opt{broadf} option is specified.
-For English-language documents, only a fairly limited number of f-ligature suppression rules is enabled by default, i.e., if the \opt{broadf} option is not enabled. Eliminating \emph{all} f-ligatures that cross morpheme boundaries simply does not appear to be a major concern in English-language typography. Whereas many (maybe most?) people would agree that it's advisable not to use the ffi-ligature in words such as chaffinch and wolffish, and not to use the ffl-ligature in words such as scofflaw and offload, there appears to be much less of a perceived need to suppress the~fi (ffi) ligature in the far more commonly occurring words that end in~f (ff\,) followed by the particles -ing, -ish, -ier, -iest, -ily, and -iness.\footnote{Examples of such words are \uselig{surfing}, \uselig{oafish}, \uselig{leafier}, \uselig{goofiest}, \uselig{fluffily}, and \uselig{goofiness}. With the \opt{broadf} option set, these words will be typeset as surfing, oafish, leafier, goofiest, fluffily, and goofiness.} The same goes for the~fl (ffl) ligature in words that end in~f (ff) followed by~-ly.\footnote{Examples are \uselig{aloofly} and \uselig{gruffly}; with the \opt{broadf} option set, these words will be typeset as aloofly and gruffly.} That is why only a few f-ligature suppression rules are enabled by default if the \opt{english} option is set. To enable the broader set of f-ligature suppression rules, users must set the \opt{broadf} option explicitly.
-
-My choices regarding which f-ligature suppression rules belong to the \enquote{basic} and \enquote{broadf} groups are almost entirely pragmatic. They are certainly not based on any overriding English-language typographic principles (which, possibly, don't even exist). However, if anyone happens to have a strong view on whether either \emph{fewer} or \emph{more} f-ligature suppression rules should be included in the \enquote{basic} group\textemdash especially if you can provide references to such discussions in learned circles\textemdash I would love to hear from you.
+As noted in \cref{sec:english-rules} above, for English-language documents only the fairly limited number of f-ligature suppression rules contained in Part~1 of the file is enabled by default. This is done because eliminating the morpheme-crossing f-ligatures caught if the |broadf| option is set does not appear to be a major concern in English-language typography. There simply doesn't appear to be a need to suppress the~fi (ffi) ligature words that end in~f (ff\,) followed by the particles -ing, -ish, -ier, -iest, -ily, and -iness. Any gain in readability resulting from suppressing these fi and fl ligatures would appear to be more than offset by unsightly visual clashes created by unligated f\kern0pti, ff\kern0pti, f\kern0ptl, and ff\kern0ptl combinations.

As already noted, it's not possible to claim that the non-ligation rules provided in \pkg{selnolig-english-patterns.sty} and \pkg{selnolig-german-patterns.sty} are complete or, for that matter, will \emph{ever} be complete. If you come across words containing ligatures that ought to be suppressed but aren't caught (yet) by the \pkg{selnolig} package, you could do the following. First, you could insert \cmmd{breaklig} instructions to suppress the ligatures on a case-by-case basis; conversely, if you discover an instance for which \pkg{selnolig} improperly breaks up a ligature, you could override that action by encasing the character pair (or triple) in a \cmmd{uselig} statement. Second, you could create your own \cmmd{nolig} and \cmmd{keeplig} rules to deal with the cases you've discovered on a document-wide basis. A third option, naturally, is to bring this case to the attention of the maintainer of the \pkg{selnolig} package and ask him/her to update the package's ligature suppresssion rules\dots

+\subsubsection*{Ligatures for \emph{as}, \emph{\ebg es}, \emph{is}, and \emph{us} that pre-empt an \emph{st} ligature}
Suppose that the text font in use provides ligatures for the \emph{as}, \emph{is}, and \emph{us} character pairs as well as for the \emph{st} character pair. By \TeX's rules for forming typographic ligatures, words that contain the character \emph{triples} \opt{ast}, \opt{ist}, or \opt{ust} will see the first two characters ligated, pre-empting the use of a typographic ligature for the trailing \emph{st} character pair. There are at least three distinct reasons why this outcome is not desirable.
-First, given the rather distinctive look of the \emph{st}~ligature, the word \opt{stochastic} may look a bit odd if the \emph{st} ligature is used only once\textemdash\emph{\uselig{stochastic}}\textemdash simply because the \emph{as} ligature pre-empts the second \emph{st} ligature; readers may prefer the look of \emph{stochastic}. Second, non-use of the st/\emph{st} ligature may be undesirable if the same word occurs twice and in close visual proximity, once set in the upright font shape\textemdash for which there are no ligatures for the \opt{as}, \opt{is}, and \opt{us} character pairs, and hence for which the issue of ligature pre-emption doesn't arise\textemdash and once in italics: must and \emph{\uselig{must}}; readers may prefer the look of must and \emph{must}. Or, consider the words \enquote{historian} and \enquote{history} when typesetting them in italics: I'd say it's much better to typeset them as \emph{historian} and \emph{history} rather than as \emph{\uselig{historian}} and \emph{\uselig{history}}. Moreover, I suspect that Austrians\textemdash at least the ones who care about discretionary typographic ligatures\dots\textemdash may prefer to see the name of their country typeset as \emph{Austria} rather than as \emph{\uselig{Austria}}. Finally, do you prefer the look of \emph{Do \uselig{fast} festive \uselig{fists} foster \uselig{fustiness}?} or that of \emph{Do fast festive fists foster fustiness?} You prefer the latter look too? Great!
-Third, there may be cases where an \emph{as} ligature not only pre-empts a subsequent \emph{st} ligature but also spans a morpheme boundary, as in the words \emph{\uselig{infrastructure}} and \emph{\uselig{seastrand}}.\footnote{This case was already noted in \cref{fn:triple}. There, two words (\opt{wolffish} and \opt{Schaffleisch}) are mentioned for which the ff-ligature would improperly pre-empt fi- and fl-ligatures \emph{and} happen to span a morpheme boundary.} For such words, the \emph{as} ligature should probably be suppressed in any case to increase the words' legibility: \emph{infrastructure} and \emph{seastrand}.

The readability of such words definitely increases if the \emph{as} ligature is suppressed: \emph{astride}, \emph{infrastructure}, and \emph{seastrand}.
The \pkg{selnolig} package is set to give preference to the distinctive-looking \emph{st} ligature over \emph{as}, \emph{is}, and \emph{us} ligatures. To this end, the following \cmmd{nolig} rules are provided:\footnote{The second of these three commands, while correct for most words that contain the string \opt{ist}, unnecessarily suppresses the \emph{is} ligature for words for which the \emph{st} character pair crosses a morpheme boundary, e.g., words that start with \emph{dis-t\ldots}\textemdash e.g., \emph{distend, distribute, distrust, disturb}\textemdash or with \emph{mis-t\ldots}\textemdash e.g., \emph{mistake, mistranslate, mistype}. (Note that separate \cmmd{nolig} rules already suppress the st/\emph{st} ligature for these words.) At this time there are no plans to address this (overall hopefully minor?) issue.}

-The German-language hyphenation exception list is currently still the shorter of the two; however, this may change in the future. The German word list is shorter in part because it is assumed that writers of German-language documents use the \pkg{babel} package and select the option \opt{ngerman} (or one of the synonymous language options); doing so also loads specialized hyphenation patterns suitable for German texts.\footnote{As was already noted earlier, the \pkg{selnolig} package is also compatible with the \pkg{hyphsubst} package.}

+Without meaning to comment in any way on the literary merits of these works, I find it interesting that Goethe's two pieces contain far fewer instances of words for which ligatures need to be broken up than does \emph{Die Buddenbrooks}. I also find it mildly interesting that no \opt{fj} and \opt{fk} instances are present in the two Goethe pieces. Also at least somewhat interestingly, the noun \enquote{Verzweiflung} occurs 23 times in \emph{Die Buddenbrooks} but only 3~times across both parts of \emph{Faust}.
+
+Note the Type~II error, \emph{viz.}, the word \enquote{flehn} (better: \uselig{flehn}), in the listing for \emph{Faust~II}. This error (which I've deliberately not removed) serves to illustrate\textemdash just in case this wasn't already clear\textemdash that \pkg{selnolig} is not and cannot ever be entirely error-free. If you use the package in your work, I recommend that you compile your document with \cmmd{debugon} turned on from time to time. Doing so will write the results of \pkg{selnolig}'s work to the |.log| file. Then, examine the log file, either directly or via a machine search for lines containing the string \enquote{ligature suppression}. (This is, by the way, precisely how I started putting together the word lists shown above.) Any Type~II errors should be fairly easy to spot this way. To fix them, you can edit your file and encase the words in question in \cmmd{uselig} instructions, or you can create new \cmmd{keeplig} instructions to override the action of the offending \cmmd{nolig} instructions. When creating new \cmmd{keeplig} rules, do take care not to introduce new Type~I errors in the process. For instance, don't create the rule \Verb+\keeplig{flehn}+, as doing so would cause failures to break up the fl ligatures in, \emph{inter alia}, auflehnen, Auto\-kopflehne, Stofflehne, and steiflehnig. (Actually, since these particular words don't occur in \emph{Faust~II}, you'd be \enquote{safe} with \Verb+\keeplig{flehn}+ as long as \emph{Faust~II} is the only document you need to typeset\dots)
+
+It's important to keep in mind that the lists shown above contain (i) \pkg{selnolig}'s \enquote{success stories} and (ii) any Type~II errors. By design, they cannot show the package's Type~I errors, \emph{viz.}, failures to break up ligatures that span morpheme boundaries. To catch any Type~I errors, I'm afraid you'll have read your output file and scan it for inappropriate ligatures. (Hopefully, there won't be too many such instances!) To remedy any Type~I errors, you should either insert \cmmd{breaklig} instructions in the words in question or devise new \cmmd{nolig} instructions\textemdash whatever works best for you.
+
+A final plea: Please feel free to inform me about any Type~I and/or Type~II errors you believe are generated by the \pkg{selnolig} package. My email address is stated on the front page of this user guide. Happy \TeX ing!
