FWIW I found a (hard)copy of the Stanford Report No STAN-CS-83-977
"Word Hy-phen-a-tion by Com-put-er" by Franklin Mark Liang (August 1983)
in the archives section of the CERN Library. The report has viii+85
pages and corresponds to Liang's PhD Thesis. 

I guess I could send a copy of it to one or two interested people, but I
doubt I can put a scanned copy up on the Web in complete legality (it has
Franklin Mark Liang as the 1983 copyright owner). mg
