The world is not yet that perfect. How do I use color when aditing a file using ssh and colorless terminal? What is the Unicode standard color of NBSP? I do not edit files just on my computer, I have to support customers, I have to cooperate with colleagues. they use different platforms, different editors. If they all use TeX, I know that ~ denotes nonbreakable space. What is a world-wide platform independent and color independent visible representation of a nonbreakable space that is clearly distinct from a normal space?
