(NY, NY) Lines: 10 Original-Subject: Re: Hyphenation, Re: Why Hyphenate It seems that the assumption is being made that you can't have justification without hyphenation, and vice-versa. I do most of my nroff stuff with hyphenation turned down but not off (.hy 14) and non-adjusted. I rarely bother with discretionary hyphens and such and I think the result is readable and looks fine (but then again, I like picasso :-)). -- Roy Smith System Administrator, Public Health Research Institute 455 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016
