Introduction

PHP Syllable splitting and hyphenation. or rather... PHP Syl-la-ble split-ting and hy-phen-ation.

Based on the work by Frank M. Liang (http://www.tug.org/docs/liang/) and the many volunteers in the TeX community.

Many languages supported. i.e. english (us/uk), spanish, german, french, dutch, italian, romanian, russian, etc. 67 languages in total.

Language sources: http://tug.org/tex-hyphen/#languages

Supports PHP 5.2 and up, so you can use it on older servers.

Changes

1.3

• Added array histogramText($text), integer countWordsText($text) and integer countPolysyllableText($text) methods.
• Refactored cache interface.
• Improved unittests.

1.2

• Deprecated treshold feature. Was based on misinterpretation of the algorithm. Methods, constants and constructor signature unchanged, although you can now omit the treshold if you want (or leave it in, it's detected as a "fake" treshold).
