hyphen(1M)                                                       hyphen(1M)

NAME
     hyphen - find hyphenated words

SYNOPSIS
     hyphen [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
     hyphen finds all the hyphenated words ending lines in file(s) and
     prints them on the standard output. If no arguments are given or if
     hyphen encounters -, it uses the standard input. Thus, hyphen may be
     used as a filter.

EXAMPLES
     You would use the following command-line to proofread nroff's hyphena-
     tion in file(s):

          mm file ... | hyphen

NOTES
     hyphen can't cope with hyphenated italic (or underlined words); it
     frequently will either miss them altogether or mishandle them. hyphen
     occasionally gets confused but with no ill effects other than spurious
     extra output.
