* Based on recent discussions in address@hidden, added HY and SHY
  to the DTD (treated as synonyms; one or the other is most likely
  to be used in future HTML specs, so for now, we support both), as
  markup equivalent to the named entity ­ and numeric character
  reference ­ (soft hyphen).  Note that Lynx implements soft
  hyphens as specified in IETF RFC 2070 (link "HTML i18n" in the
  Users Guide).  Use of a tag instead of entity is preferable for
  a soft hyphen because browsers which do not support soft hyphen
  will ignore it as an "unknow tag" instead of inappropriately
  inserting a hyphen or displaying the raw entity.  Also added WBR,
  which is handled like soft hyphen (indicating a permissible wrap
  point), but does not insert a hyphen at the wrap. - FM
