Bug#610669: OpenOffice.org adds a no-break space instead of a thin space before a semi-colon in French
Package: openoffice.org
Version: 1:3.2.1-11
Severity: normal
When I set a document to French (Tools -> Language -> For all text),
each time I type a word followed by a semi-colon, OpenOffice.org
automatically adds a no-break space (U+00A0) before the semi-colon.
This is incorrect. A thin space (U+2009) should be used instead.
Same problem with the question mark and the exclamation mark. For the
colon, there are several typography rules, and the choice should be
given.
