Please read the documentation at the beginning of this file.

TeX inserts a \discretionary after a font's hyphenchar, which is
normally set to '-'.  A \discretionary suppresses further hyphenation
within this words.  For languages which combine words using the '-'
character (e.g., in german you combine the english "word hyphenation"
to the combined word "Wort-Trennung"), the hyphenation is restricted
to the hyphen char.  T1 encoded fonts include a second '-' glyph which
is designed and can be used as the font's hyphenchar.  To allow word
hyphenation at the '-' you have to add patterns containing the "-" to
the usual hyphenation patterns.  And this is done by "hypht1.tex".

I have got feedback for "hypht1.tex", thus there are users (including
me :-) of this file -> include these files.
