hyphenator v0.0.3

Hyphenator

Watson can tell you how tall Ke$ha is. It's time your computer can tell you how many syllables (roughly) are in a word, and fast!

Usage

Hyphenator has one usage, phonetics. Primarily, this is useful for counting syllables quickly. But it could be used for other phonetic applications that need a speed up.
