I think it is not documented, but AFAIK the Cocoa text system uses
TeX-like hyphenation algorithm. With this algorithm one provides one
set of hyphenation patterns per language. I have no idea how you can
add a file with your own patterns...

I have ported a Finnish spell checking and hyphenation program from
Linux to Mac OS X. The spell checking part works fine as a normal
Cocoa spelling dictionary, but is there any way to use the hyphenation
program from Cocoa applications?
TextEdit has a command called Allow Hyphenation in Format menu, and
with it selected, the program indeed seems to hyphenate the text. I
think English hyphenation works mostly correctly, but hyphenating
Finnish does not seem to work so well. Does TextEdit use some
system-wide hyphenation service, or has the program its own
hyphenation code? I would expect there to be a similar hyphenation
service to the Cocoa spelling service, but so far I have not found any
documentation on this.
Thanks,
Otto
