NAME

hyphen − find hyphenated words

SYNOPSIS

hyphen files

DESCRIPTION

Hyphen finds all the hyphenated words in files and prints them on the standard output.  If no arguments are given, the standard input is used.  Thus hyphen may be used as a filter. 

BUGS

Hyphen can’t cope with hyphenated italic (i.e., underlined) words; it will often miss them completely, or mangle them. 
Hyphen occasionally gets confused, but with no ill effects other than spurious extra output.
