The Tinydict PS Markup now has auto-hyphenation

Olavi Sakari has devised PostScript hyphenation procedures for the
Tinydict PostScript Markup.
Users may choose between the UK or USA TeX hyphenation patterns, compiled
by R.D Liang, or the Tinydivi Dictionary used by Cappella Archive.

The 73k TeX dictionaries consist of some 8,500 patterns covering almost
any subject. 

The 5k Tinydivi contains about 500 patterns based on prefix and suffix
groupings, which may be added to by the user.

See a PDF comparing the two dictionaries side by side:
http://www.cappella.demon.co.uk/division/dividemo.pdf/

Other demos for distilling into PDF; interpreting with Ghostscript; or
printing on a PS printer may be found at: 
http://www.cappella.demon.co.uk/division/dividing.html/

The TeX hyphenation patterns for PostScript are available from

The full range of PostScript Markup Resources including the Tiny Guide,
the Minidict for beginners, and TinyHelps for book production are on:
