The effect of multiple sequential whitespace characters is cumulative such that the next printable character is rendered at a location based on the accumulated effect of preceding whitespace characters. The term whitespace is rooting in the common practice of rendering text on white paper. Normally, a whitespace character is not rendered as ...
Select, copy, and paste the character using the GNOME Character Map. If not already installed along with GNOME, it is usually available as "gucharmap" (which can be installed with "yum install gucharmap" as root on a Redhat-like Linux distribution, for example). In KDE, a similar application is named "KCharSelect".
Specials is a short Unicode block of characters allocated at the very end of the Basic Multilingual Plane, at U+FFF0–FFFF, containing these code points: . U+FFF9 INTERLINEAR ANNOTATION ANCHOR, marks start of annotated text
This is a convenience template for the zero-width, optional-whitespace character, U+200C ZERO WIDTH NON-JOINER (‌). It is completely invisible in display, but has the effect of acting as a breaking point at an otherwise non-breaking situation, e.g. within continuous text inside a word that otherwise would possibly break.
The KCharSelect character mapping tool shown displaying a subset of the Unicode Mathematical Operators The Unicode logo. Unicode input is method to add a specific Unicode character to a computer file; it is a common way to input characters not directly supported by a physical keyboard.
WhiteSpace is a Unicode character property specified in the Unicode Character Database. This template's initial visibility currently defaults to expanded , meaning that it is fully visible. To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:
A second common application of non-breaking spaces is in plain text file formats such as SGML, HTML, TeX and LaTeX, whose rendering engines are programmed to treat sequences of whitespace characters (space, newline, tab, form feed, etc.) as if they were a single character (but this behavior can be overridden).
A Unicode character is assigned a unique Name (na). [1] The name is composed of uppercase letters A–Z, digits 0–9, hyphen-minus and space.Some sequences are excluded: names beginning with a space or hyphen, names ending with a space or hyphen, repeated spaces or hyphens, and space after hyphen are not allowed.
