Ever since installing TeX 3.0 on my SparcStation I have gotten the impression that there is something wrong with the hyphenation in 3.0. It seems to break words incorrectly more often. Often I find it breaking a word with only the last letter on the following line. My question: Is there a difference in hyphenation between TeX 3.0 and 2.9x (which I was happy with) or is it my imagination? -- Eric Myers "If God had intended for man to fly He would have given us the brains to build airplanes."
