- Subject: hyphen in Orbis
- Newsgroups: bit.listserv.notabene
- Lines: 18

-
- Orbis seems to treat the (hard) hyphen differently from the old TB,
- now it is not a separator. Hence
- even zohar
- will not find Even-Zohar, nor will
- jukka pekka or
- jukka
- match with Jukka-Pekka.
-
- This is a welcome improvement, once you know it is there.
-
- There is a file which probably will, eventually, allow one to determine
- exactly which characters one wants to treat as separators, but that
- does not seem to function yet.
