TeX hyphenation patterns

File with hyphenation patterns for Interlingua: This is my first attempt. Still some guesswork involved. Still some proofreading to be done.

Below is the file that was used to create the patterns. Please have a look at this file if you think you can help to improve the hyphenation.

Once the hyphenation patterns are mature, I will upload them to CTAN.
