    <title>Description</title>

    <para>This parameter replaces the parameter

    <parameter>monoseq.hyphenation</parameter> and its role is more general.

    It contains a comma separated list of the predefined inline

    formats that must be agressively hyphenated. It means that all the

    elements rendered with these formats are then hyphenated.</para>

    <para>The predefined formats that can be hyphenated when contained in the

    list are:

    <variablelist>

      <varlistentry>

      <term>monoseq</term>

      <listitem>

      <para>Monospaced font.</para>

      </listitem>

      </varlistentry>

      <varlistentry>

      <term>sansseq</term>

      <listitem>

      <para>Sans serif like font.</para>

      </listitem>

      </varlistentry>

      <varlistentry>

      <term>boldmonoseq</term>

      <listitem>

      <para>Bold monospaced font.</para>

      </listitem>

      </varlistentry>

      <varlistentry>

      <term>italicmonoseq</term>

      <listitem>

      <para>Italic monospaced font.</para>

      </listitem>

      </varlistentry>

    </variablelist>

    </para>

    <para>If one wants no hyphenation at all, he must set the parameter to

    "nohyphen". In this case dblatex tries to avoid overfull boxes (words in

    the margins) but keeps the words splittable only on their natural

    hyphenation points which can end up to no hyphenation at all for literal

    words like URLs or technical terms.</para>
