: support for hyphenation. New languages can easily be added through tables that
: support a rule- or dictionary based approach. Liblouis also supports math
: braille (Nemeth and Marburg).

:
: Liblouis is based on the translation routines in the BRLTTY screen reader for
: Linux. It has, however, gone far beyond these routines.
