Changing the hyphening character makes the library not work correctly.

1. Add such a line to the workingexample.html:
Hyphenator.config({hyphenchar:'|'});
...before using run() function
The character can be anything, even a dash.
2. Run workingexample.html in your browser.

You'll see that all the words are sliced with a char of your choice, no matter 
what is their location in the line.
Live example:

The version of Hyphenator is 3.3.0.
Operating sytem: Windows 7
Browser: Mozilla Firefox 4, Google Chrome 11

This is not a bug and intended behaviour.

Hyphenator.js inserts hyphenchar at every possible break-point, since there is 
no way to know where the line ends.
By default the soft hyphen (­) is used which only becomes visible (as a 
hyphen) when the word is broken over two lines.

The hyphenchar option is mainly used for debugging purposes.
