I have two hyphenation problems in LaTeX.

First, I have a long section heading that requires two lines to print.
I'd like it to print like this:

	3.4 Foobar foobar foobar foobar
	    foobar

but LaTeX insists on doing this:

	3.4 Foobar foobar foobar foobar foo-
	    bar

Does anyone know how to *prevent* a word from being hyphenated just once?
(Alternatively, is there a way to force a line break in a section heading?
This wouldn't be as elegant a solution, but I'll take it.)

Second, I have a block of text displayed in tt font.  (Before anyone flames
me for that, it's supposed to represent text a user would see on an ASCII
terminal.)  LaTeX normally won't hyphenate tt text.  Is there a way to
override this?

				Thanks for any help!
