Spelling of Ancient Greek
Hello,
Suppose i would like to prepare a document in ancient Greek using AOO.
Naturally, I would like to enable hyphenation. To the best of my knowledge,
AOO is borrowing UTF-8 hyphenation patterns that are used in the TeX world.
If this is true, could you please let me know how can I create a hyphenation
file for AOO form a TeX hyphenation patterns?
Thanks in advance.

Actually this is the spelling assistant not the hyphenator. This module is
described in the following URL:
https://www.openoffice.org/lingucomponent/hyphenator.html
There I read the following:
You need to put an indicator of the character encoding used
as the first line of the dictionary file (look in hyph_en.dic).
Possible values are: ISO8859-1, ISO8859-2, ..., ISO8859-10, KOI8-R
So in the era of Unicode, OpenOffice insists on using single byte encodings which practically means that
it is impossible to hyphenate ancient Greek text. The reason? You need UTF-8 hyphenation patterns which
of course exist in the TeX world and are used by XeTeX.

Which means what? BTW, let me ask again: Where are the
hyphenation files and how they are created?
