<para>If zero (the default), hyphenation is suppressed for
<tag>filename</tag> output.</para>

<note>
  <para>If hyphenation is already turned off globally (that is, if
  <parameter>man.hyphenate</parameter> is zero, setting
  <parameter>man.hyphenate.filenames</parameter> is not
  necessary.</para>
</note>

<para>If <parameter>man.hyphenate.filenames</parameter> is non-zero,
filenames will not be treated specially and are subject to hyphenation
just like other words.</para>

<note>
  <para>If you are thinking about setting a non-zero value for
  <parameter>man.hyphenate.filenames</parameter> in order to make long
  filenames/pathnames break across lines, you'd probably be better off
  experimenting with setting the
  <parameter>man.break.after.slash</parameter> parameter first. That
  will cause long pathnames to be broken after slashes.</para>
