Created attachment 79713 [details] patch for core/plain/i18npool/source/breakiterator/breakiterator_unicode.cxx Dear all, I'm currently trying to build tibetan support for hunspell. I'm realizing it won't work out of the box for LibreOffice. After some search, I'm providing a patch I cannot test (compilation time it way too long on my old laptop). Can you please comment and include it? It should make spellchecking possible for Tibetan (and Dzongkha). Thank you, -- Elie
I realize I did not specify the reason word breaking wouldn't work with Tibetan without ICU: in Tibetan, syllables (what we could call words) are separated by tshegs, character ་, not by spaces. Dzongkha is exactly the same.
Eike / Andras - another nice patch from Elie - can you review ? :-)

Thank you very much! I have to say I didn't know this tool, it seems very good, I'll use it next time.
