Of course there's a nonbreaking space, it's even in iso latin1 (xA0). However my original problem were word wraps at /. (e.g. </bla> broke to </ and bla>). I found that in this case as zero width joiner (x200D) does the trick. Great :-) OTOH I think the zero width nonjoiner (x200C) should allow word wraps at positions where pango would see no word end otherwise. Unfortunately it doesn't. Wouldn't that make sense? Could that be changed in pango? > That's not going to work, no. In nowrap mode, no width is supplied to > Pango and no wrapping ever happens.

But then I would have to calculate widths myself in order to know where to insert the link separator. Not a tempting option. Morus
