Hi,

is it correct that we use a soft hyphen (0xc2 0xad) to draw the
hyphen when breaking words? It seems to draw ok with fltk/X11, but
wouldn't an unconditional hyphen 0xE2 0x80 0x90 be more correct?
I'm asking because e.g the Apple drawing library doesn't seem to
draw the soft hyphen if it thinks there should be no line break.

Cheers,
Johannes
