Handling hyphenation pattern objects
This function can be used to examine and change hyphenation pattern objects be used with hyphen
.
manage.hyph.pat( hyph.pattern, get = NULL, set = NULL, rm = NULL, word = NULL, min.length = 3L, rm.hyph = TRUE )
hyph.pattern |
Either an object of class |
get |
A character string, part of a word to look up in the pattern set, i.e., without the numbers indicating split probability. |
set |
A character string, a full pattern to be added to the pattern set, i.e., including the numbers indicating split probability. |
rm |
A character string, part of a word to remove from the pattern set, i.e., without the numbers indicating split probability. |
word |
A character string, a full word to hyphenate using the given pattern set. |
min.length |
Integer, number of letters a word must have for considering a hyphenation. |
rm.hyph |
Logical, whether appearing hyphens in words should be removed before pattern matching. |
You can only run one of the possible actions at a time. If any of these arguments is not NULL
,
the corresponding action is done in the following order, and every additional discarded:
get
Searches the pattern set for a given word part
set
Adds or replaces a pattern in the set (duplicates are removed)
rm
Removes a word part and its pattern from the set
word
Hyphenates a word and returns all parts examined as well as all matching patterns
If all action arguments are NULL
,
manage.hyph.pat
returns the full pattern object.
If all action arguments are NULL
,
returns an object of class kRp.hyph.pat
.
The same is true if set
or rm
are set and hyph.pattern
is itself an object of that class; if you refer to a language
instead,
pattern changes will be done internally for the running session and take effect immediately.
The get
argument will return a caracter vector, and word
a data frame.
## Not run: manage.hyph.pat("en", set="r3ticl") manage.hyph.pat("en", get="rticl") manage.hyph.pat("en", word="article") manage.hyph.pat("en", rm="rticl") ## End(Not run)
