> The \- command only allows LaTeX to break there, it does not require that it break there. You can insist on a split with something like Hef-\linebreak feron.

Please do not do that.  The sentence is correct as it stands, since it is about insisting on a split, so \- is nto the right thing, as described inthe first sentence.

In node (info "(latex2e) \- (hyphenation)") shouldn't there be « \- »
not « - » in the example « Hef\-\linebreak feron » given in the last
paragraph ?

If no objection this is something I am going to fix in my next commit.
