Summary description: Testing hyphenation patterns
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This new package implements some old TUGboat code to adapt it to LaTeX
with some enhancements. It may be used for testing hyphenation patterns
or for controlling that secific words are hyphenated as expected.
Differs form showhyphens, because it typesets its output on the
document output file. It works also with xelatex, where showhyphens
requires a workaround.
