Description Örjan Smith 2005-03-27 01:45:28 UTC
Version:           3.3.2 (using KDE 3.3.2, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.4
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.28

The HTML entity &shy; (soft hyphen) is treated as a plain hyphen. The w3c recommendation specifies:

"If a line is broken at a soft hyphen, a hyphen character must be displayed at the end of the first line. If a line is not broken at a soft hyphen, the user agent must not display a hyphen character."
