Hi,
I still have to find a keyboard with a non-breaking character in it! :) I think there is a misunderstanding: I don't have to type * * (which is the html entity) .. I need the character itself. I wrote it only to be more clear, apparently without luck :) Any editor has to deal with special characters:for example in Word you have to press CTRL+SHIFT+SPACEBAR to type a non-breaking space. Have a look at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/211887 Open office does the same: if you open your libreoffice/openoffice writer you will find this shortcut looking at Tools > Customize > Keyboard > Insert > CTRL + SHIFT + SPACE Furthermore in Windows to deal with it, you can (in any editor) press ALT + UNICODE of the character you need. In this way pressing ALT + 0192 leads you to insert a capital A with grave accent (which in html entity is À) If I remember right the unicode for a non-breaking space character is 160, so by typing ALT + 0160 I would have inserted it in Windows. Have a look at http://tlt.its.psu.edu/suggestions/international/accents/codealt.html If there's no way to insert it with a Geany shortcut, is there any ALT + UNICODE equivalent in Ubunutu? I'm on a Lubuntu 11.10 box by the way.
