[tex-hyphen] tex-hyphen Digest, Vol 58, Issue 1

[levan shoshiashvili]

I used patgen for Georgian. Georgian UTF-8 is 3 bytes long.
so when patgen asks for Number of chars I use 3*N1, 3*N2 Where N1 and N2 
are for one byte chars what patgen expects :) I had no succes 
with opatgen (unicode patgen)/was unable copile it for windows. 
This is nice program and library. Unfortunately not updated long time/

this will wotk for Kmer language also (3 bytes long)
http://utf8-chartable.de/unicode-utf8-table.pl

another way is to convert your words(actually chars) to 1 byte encoding , 
than use patgen as described and convert generated patterns back to utf-8. 
But as i mentioned way above worked for me. after that I just converted 
generated paterns for 1byte encoding for georgian tex (T8M).(this
is not necessaary if you dont need hypenation support for 1byte TeX
engines) .
Those 2 sets of generated patterns work for 1byte and utf-8 respectivelly. 
pattern loading is handled with hyph-utf8 package
