Bob Bemer, in a series of articles he wrote for *Interface Age* on ASCII
(including code-extension techniques, which discussion might be very
appropriate here), mentions that Italian publishers have *no* trouble with
hyphenation.  If a word won't fit on a line, they underscore the last
character that fits, no matter what it is, and pick up with it on the
next line.  No fuss, no muss.
