"hyphenassist" [https://codeberg.org/ajcain/hyphenassist] is a utility I wrote to aid checking hyphenation in (Lua)LaTeX documents.

It reads a list of hyphenations appearing in a document, generated by a package like my own "lua-list-hyphen" [https://ctan.org/pkg/lua-list-hyphen] or the older "lua-check-hyphen" [https://ctan.org/pkg/lua-check-hyphen]. It compares them to a division dictionary, flags each hyphenation as valid, invalid, unknown, or ambiguous (like re-cord (verb) vs rec-ord (noun)), and allows the user to add entries to the division dictionary, add TeX hyphenation exceptions, or ignore certain hyphenations.

It is a console app, keyboard-driven with Emacs-style keybindings, written in Python using the urwid library.

I have uploaded a new version of my book ‘Form & Number: A History of Mathematical Beauty’ [https://archive.org/details/cain_formandnumber_ebook_large] to archive.org.

The PDF of the new version is available immediately, and archive.org will re-generate the pages for the in-browser reader over the next few hours.

Changes:

• Improvements to several figures.
• Various small improvements to the text.
• Several minor corrections, including a number of reader-submitted ones.
• All end-of-line word hyphenations now follow the Oxford University Press standard. (The TeX/LaTeX #hyphenation algorithm does a good job, but is not perfect.)
• Many previously-bad page breaks have been adjusted.
