Add non-breaking hyphen #317

Closed AlsoScratch closed 3 years ago

AlsoScratch commented 4 years ago

There are several characters I have in mind but U+2010 and non-breaking hyphen (U+2011) are the most important for me.

Can you provide real-world use cases? And in what way differs U+2010 from U+002D?

Not sure actually. But non-breaking hyphen does exactly what it says; it prevents strings like "1-1" from separating into two lines.

Does U+00AD not serve the same purpose?

Oh, U+00AD is a soft hyphen, that's completely different.
