I'm trying to get all hyphenations that the LaTeX-algorithm gives out. So I'm trying this:



echo "\documentclassstandalone
\hyphenationPy-ra-mi-de
\showhyphensPyramide" | xelatex


This does not give me any errors, so that the output contains



TU/lmr/m/n/10 Py-ra-mide


which I can parse for. But the hyphenation that it gives me is not Py-ra-mi-de, but Py-ra-mide. What do I do wrong here?

The default language (American English) sets lefthyphenmin=2 and righthyphenmin=3. Thus no TeX engine will hyphenate past the m, whatever hyphenation points you define.



If you try



documentclassarticle
usepackage[italian,english]babel

begindocument

hyphenationPy-ra-mi-de

showhyphensPyramide

selectlanguageitalian

hyphenationPy-ra-mi-de

showhyphensPyramide

enddocument


you get



Underfull hbox (badness 10000) in paragraph at lines 8--8
TU/lmr/m/n/10 Py-ra-mide

Underfull hbox (badness 10000) in paragraph at lines 14--14
TU/lmr/m/n/10 Py-ra-mi-de


It wouldn't be necessary to set the hyphenation points again, actually, because the hyphenation you want fits into the patterns for Italian. The settings for this language have lefthyphenmin=2 and righthyphenmin=2.

    You must set the hyphenmins correctly:



    documentclassstandalone
    hyphenationPy-ra-mi-de


    begindocument
    showhyphensPyramide

    righthyphenmin1
    lefthyphenmin1

    showhyphensPyramide

    enddocument


    The first showhyphens gives your output but the second now
