Re: [docbook-apps] hyphenation-character not inserted when there are line break

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

Hi,
If you intention is to break lines in a programlisting between 
words, and to indicate the line break with backslash, then the 
method that *should* work is described in this reference:

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/ProgramListings.html#BreakLongLines

The 'hyphenate.verbatim' parameter is what creates soft hyphens 
between words, which generates the marker when a line breaks. 
The method described there works in XEP and Antenna House, but 
not in FOP.

In FOP 0.20.5, the lines simply don't break, which suggests that 
soft hyphens don't work.  In FOP 0.9, the lines break, but the 
inserted soft hyphens are *all* displayed as hyphens, and the 
desired hyphenation character (backslash) is absent.  You might 
report the problem to the FOP developers.
