allowing content to break on ANY character?

[naglists]

Hi,
I am working in Styler 5.2 m050 however I'm working in a FOSI source edit,
so a FOSI answer is required.

I want to permit content in context para/component to break between any two
characters. Technically, that may mean I want to allow content to break
after any character.

Is it possible to specify this?

If it matters, I'm developing a semantic table, so I may have two places to
do this para/content or row/entry. Attributes of entry? Processing
instructions?

I'm currently reading about hyphenation rules, but even if I can figure out
how to set up the right rules, it's reading like those rules are applied at
the document level.

Basically I want logic opposite to

 applied at the character (not word)
level.

You are on the right path, looking at the hyphenation rules. The
attributes here also control break before and break after. It has been
some time since I played here but I think you need to specify every (and
I mean every) character than someone might type in this area in the
breakafter attribute.

You put a specific language code on the hyphenation rule and then
indication that this is the language in use in some other attribute.
Again, much too long since I had to do this. But it is possible.

Paul,

The Hyphenation category can be specified for specific e-i-cs, which is how bilingual documents such as side-by-side English and French are handled.

Good luck!

Thanks. With your pointers, I got it.

I'm using:
<rscs>
<hyphrule<br/> brkafchr="- / @ \ . = a b c ... A B C ... 0 1 2 ...">
brkalways="1"
clbrkok="1"
language="para_context_component_monitored_item"
minpush="1"
nobrkchr="1"
pgbrkok="1"
...
</rscs>
...

The XML output by my semantic table includes this (the content of this para
originates in the authored element "component"):

<para role="para_context_component_monitored_item">

<att>
<specval attname="role" attloc="para"&lt;br"/>attval="para_context_component_monitored_item">
