Better word splitting for reader #5

Open hftf opened 12 years ago

In some questions, words seem to appear too quickly or too slowly. (For example: MUT 2010 - Minnesota 6 - Done.doc, Question 17 "Schumann") Two consecutive spaces produce an extra empty word, while words separated by a non-breaking space are considered as one word.

One possible way to improve word splitting for the reader could be to fold one or more of any type of space (regular space, non-breaking space, thin space, en space, whatever) into one space, and then split.
