- rerdavies 11mo agoOh, nice! I've been using '-'s, but I'm going to switch.
- kccqzy 11mo agoThere are different Unicode characters though so be careful. Some allow browsers to break at the dot, others are non-breaking so the browser will consider it a single word.
- rerdavies 11mo agoMy specific use-case was breaking syllables in lyrics embedded in sheet music so that they line up with the associated notes on the staff above. (I write a lot of lead sheets).
