The <samp><span class="option">run-together-limit</span></samp> options controls the maximum number of words that can be strung together, the default is normally 2. The <samp><span class="option">run-together-min</span></samp> options controls the minimum length of the individual components of the run together word, the default is normally 3. Both the <samp><span class="option">run-together-limit</span></samp> and <samp><span class="option">run-together-min</span></samp> option may be specified in both the language data file or as a normal option. <!-- FIXME: Add note about compound word support when suggesting. --> </body></html>
