Summary: Glitch with Hyphenated Words

Initial Comment:
If a hyphenated word is broken after the hyphen between successive lines when one is entering the text of an episode, then when the episode is displayed a space character is inserted after the hyphen. So one could see, for example, "well- known" rather than "well-known". One can edit the episode and manually break the line prematurely to correct this, but it's a bit of a pain.

Thank you for the confirmation, I have committed the fix for this bug into
Git. The fix will be included in the next release of Extend-A-Story. In the
meantime, I have applied this fix to The Never Ending Quest and The Black
Void on Sir-Toby.Com.

Yes, that seems to have fixed it. Thanks. I'm sorry that I didn't give as
much info as I should have done in my initial report.

I was a bit worried on pasting in my text to see that it appeared to have
become double line-spaced, but viewing it in preview and - most importantly
- the final result were both fine.

Thank you for the additional information. I was able to reproduce the
problem using Internet Explorer. I have made a change to the Beta Test
Story that resolved the issue for me. Let me know if it works for you as
well.

I'm using IE8. It may be relevant that I compose my episodes in the text
editor Notepad+ and then copy and paste it into the episode's text windows.
It may be relevant that I have wordwrap switched on in Notepad+ at a
line-length of 80 characters.

I created an example in episode 2393 of the Beta Test Story. Here's the
text that I copied and pasted in:

crime-stoppers crime-stoppers crime-stoppers crime-stoppers crime-stoppers
stuff stuff crime-stoppers crime-stoppers crime-stoppers crime-stoppers
crime-stoppers.

In this comment box, unlike the text box in Extend-A-Story,  80 character
lines fit without extra word-wrapping needing to be inserted, and so the
same problem does not occur here.

I'm having a hard time reproducing this bug. Which browser are you using,
and which version? Can you provide some example text that you can use to
reproduce the bug?
