I have been told that TeX contains a really sharp hyphenation algorithm

1. Is the TeX source in the public domain?

2. If so, can someone E-mail me the relevant bits - I'll take C or Pascal,
	or anything else, it's all going to get translated to something
	else pretty ugly anyway ( Z80 assembler - now aren't you sorry
	you asked :-) )

	Thanks in advance (again)
