Hi,

here again a small patch to wv/text.c. First a small confession:
the 'case range' foul-up was mine. Realized too late it was a
gnu-ism :-(.

It still contains an off-by-one error, which is fixed here.
I also moved a comment block.

Also code to handle "soft-hyphens" (i.e. preferred word break
indicators that become hyphens only on line breaks, and
otherwise vanish; \- in LaTeX). It appears that the Word test
files I have use 0x2013 for this, but also for "en-dash" (the
official meaning), -- in LaTeX. Two completely different
symbols using the same code. Word renders them correctly and
differently. What does Word know that wv doesn't?

I don't understand this.

Martin
