Re: hyphenation again (mkii) [solved]

[Steffen Wolfrum <context@st.estfiles.de>]

Wolfgang knew the answer, and as the solution is so brilliant I don't  
want to be selfish about this treasure:

\definetextmodediscretionary ThinSpace
   {\penalty\plustenthousand\hskip.166em\relax}

\definetextmodediscretionary ThickSpace
   {\penalty\plustenthousand\hskip.277em\relax}

... and in situations like "today is the 204.|ThinSpace|anniversary  
of the death of Johann Gottfried von Herder" you will avoid an  
unintended line-break after "204." but will keep all hyphenation  
points in "anniversary". And that's great.

Cheers Johann Gottfried, btw!!

Steffen
