Description of lines

DIHYPH uses several predefined global variables (switches) that may be
adapted to the user's wishes by editing file "dhdflt.cfg".



DH00   lines hold definitions valid for all languages.
DHnn   lines hold definitions valid for language 'nn'.
Other lines not starting with 'DH' are comments only.

DH00 and DHnn lines are limited to 80 characters but you may define
more than one DHnn line for the same language-no, e.g.:

DH40  vs=2; ns=2; minwl=4;
DH40  exfile=  +specf1 specf2 specf3 specf4;

Later defined values overrule values defined before !
When languages are switched during hyphenation session, user must be aware
that all values defined in a DH-line (except "exfile") are valid for other
languages as well until redefined again in another DH-line !
That is why "vs, ns and minwl" are defined in every DH-line again.

Description of special switches:

mexsw= 1;
          Multiple exception-access for exceptions ending with *
          e.g.: following exceptions are stored (among others):
          -------------
          Ab-schieds-t*
          Teil-etat
          -------------
          To split the word "Abschiedsteiletat" DIHYPH finds first
          "Ab-schieds-t" and than starting with first letter following
          last hyphen ("-t") the word "Teil-etat" in exception file.


exfile=    
          Definition of special exception dictionaries.

          DIHYPH uses standard exception file "DHEXnn.TXT" and "DTEXnn.CAT"
          automatically.
          When user wants to switch it off or to add one or more other files,
          he may define this by using the "exfile=" parameter as follows:

          exfile=  +specf1 specf2;
             Use standard file plus "specf1" and "specf2" files for exception search.

          exfile=  =specf1 specf2;
             Don't use standard exception file but "specf1" and "specf2" only
             for exception search.

          specf1  means files "specf1.txt" and "specf1.cat".
          specf2  means files "specf2.txt" and "specf2.cat".

          Lenght of file name(s) e.g. "specf1" must be >= 5 characters.
          For every exception file defined in "exfile= " the value of
          "excspac" must be increased by 2000 !
