PURPOSE: 8-bit hyphenation patterns for TeX based upon the new Dutch
spelling, officially since 1 August 1996. These patterns follow
the new hyphenation rules in the `Woordenlijst Nederlandse
Taal, SDU Uitgevers, Den Haag 1995' (the so called `Groene
Boekje') described in section 5.2 (Het afbreekteken).

The main differences with our earlier patterns based upon the
CELEX dictionary are:
(1) provide 8-bit patterns based upon the T1 character encoding
(the encoding for DC/EC compatible TeX fonts)
(2) don't hyphenate if this results in a syllable of one letter
before or after the hyphen (hence hyphens in a-drenaline,
studi-o, mensa-pen and vide-oachtig are invalid)
(3) handle words derived from other languages (`bastaard
woorden') according to the new rules

Like the CELEX patterns these patterns don't hyphenate:
(4) in a changing syllable (menuutje can not be hyphenated as
menu-tje)
(5) in words that have different hyphenations according to
there meaning (buur-tje/buurt-je)
