------- Additional comments from nem...@openoffice.org Wed Jan 13 08:19:24 +0000 2010 ------- nemeth->tl: em dash (U+2014) is a real word separator, en dash (U+2013) is for ranges and relationships, so it has a similar role, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dash#Em_dash). I think, em dash and en dash have to be word separators. Checking em dash and en dash usage is better with grammar checkers. (By the way, Unicode and 8-bit Windows encodings contain en dash and em dash, so the problem is specific for the dictionary encoding, too. I believe, Hunspell supports default word breaking at en dashes with UTF-8 encoded dictionaries. For other encodings, you can convert en dashes to double hyphens (--) temporarily, Hunspell will handle it correctly: $ ~/hunspell-1.2.8/src/tools/hunspell -d /opt/openoffice.org3/share/uno_packages/cache/uno_packages/SdbQvF_/dict-en.oxt/en_US Bose--Einsten & Bose--Einsten 9 0: Bose--Einstein, Bose--Einsteinium, Bose--Eisenstein, Bose--Reinstate, Bose--Minster, Einsteinium, Reinstatement, Liechtenstein, Rubinstein) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
