richard: lookitthat
... working on line break and word break tests
... in the process put down thoughts on line breaking
... css says break by syllable or space or dictionary word lookup
... thought not full story
... there's a little table there
... some use space, some use word separator
... some wrap syllables even though they use spaces
... thought might find interesting
... plus a bunch of archaic scripts with info

addison: put somewhere non-transient?

richard: started an article
... not sure about table---some question marks
... gap analysis
... talked to alolita
... getting some contribs to hebrew now too
