Hi Steffen,

you can change the space between the characters the |*| inserts.

% original definition
%\definetextmodediscretionary *
%  {\prewordbreak\discretionary{-}{}{\kern.05em}\prewordbreak}

\definetextmodediscretionary *
  {\prewordbreak\discretionary{-}{}{}\prewordbreak}

Now Auf|*|lagen give for me the same output as Auf\-lagen.

Wolfgang
