SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

hyphen ®nds all the hyphenated words ending lines in ®les and prints them on the standard output. If no arguments are given, the standard input is used; thus, hyphen can be used as a ®lter.

WARNINGS

hyphen cannot cope with hyphenated italics (i.e., underlined) words; it often misses them completely or mangles them.

hyphen occasionally gets confused, but with no ill effects other than spurious extra output.
