Subject: TeX 3 hyphenation pattern assignments
Keywords: TeX 3.0, hyphenation

It would be silly to plan on trying to come up with = standard
pattern numbers for each language that TeX might come = across; it
would be a pain to try and keep track of it all, and = I, for one,
am disinclined to bother with keeping a directory of = the nature:
0 =3D US English
1 =3D Italian
2 =3D French
3 =3D Turkish
etc.

There are doubtless more than 256 hyphenatable = languages in the
world (anybody care to come up with the actual = number), and sites
are likely to only pre-load those patterns that = receive common
use anyway.
