  I guess, for this to work smoothly there must be also modified bold
and italic versions of default Oberon font. And with correct names.
This can be done.

  Besides I was assuming that there is a mapping (from ASCII to typographic signs)

  - (ASCII minus)       ->  m-dash
  _ (ASCII underscore)  ->  n-dash

and that just modifiying the Oberon font will affect the way hyphenation
is done. Well, looks. Now, after a bit of of trying it seems that both
Script.Mod and Hyphen.Mod use - (ASCII minus) for hyphenation. So, does
anyone know which is the use of "Oberon underscore"?
