Suggestion: prettify \nbsp{} as NO-BREAK SPACE

Suggestion: prettify \nbsp{} as NO-BREAK SPACE

Emacs displays NO-BREAK SPACE differently from regular space, whereas Org-mode displays \nbsp{} as a regular space (when replacement of symbols is enabled).  Maybe it would help to display it as NO-BREAK SPACE instead?

I can provide a patch if it is useful.

Clément.

Hi Clément,

I think rather that the entry for \nbsp in the ‘org-entities’ alist is
incorrect: the last two elements (the Latin-1 and UTF8 equivalents)
should be a non-breaking space, rather than a plain space.  This would
make \nbsp display as a non-breaking space in buffers and also when
exporting to (UTF8) plain text.

Thanks for the offer.  I went ahead and made the change (on the master
branch), since it was so simple.
