Well, it doesn't work like the ligature break, because the ligature break does not prevent a line from ending in <space><hyphen> with "ism" on the next line. While this command actually works. Or did you merely mean that this new thing - once implemented - should look like a ligature break on screen? I think the better way would be "insert->special char->non-hyphenating dash" In the main window it would be a plain dash, but colored red the same way a nonbreaking space or hfill is red. (Light blue dash is already used up for hyphenation points.) Helge Hafting
