How can I enter hard (non-breaking) spaces while composing an email

I'd like to enter hard (non-breaking) spaces while composing emails so that the words on either side of the non-breaking space stay together and are not broken over the end of a line.

Searches on this site and Google produce similar questions from users, but the only solution seems to be a series of mouse-clicks and hard-to-remember key-strokes (Insert>HTML) and then type in the HTMP code, which I can't remember. I'd have thought that there would be a simple shortcut like Ctrl+Space or Ctrl+Shift+Space.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Mark.

I used nonbreaking and inserted a space and it worked as it should when re-sizing. I also had to exit that mode. A LOT of keystrokes. I guess you can set up a shortcut in user.something. I don't know how thou.

Under format / textstyle there is nonbreaking

Thanks for that Gnospen.

However, I must be missing something, because I can't get it to work.

I type a sentence, then select the space character between two words, then do Format>textstyle>Nonbreaking, I then resize the window so that the line has to break in between the two words. The second word gets moved to the new line, and does not bring with it the word to the left of the nonbreaking space. Even when I select both words including the space and do the Format>textstyle>Nonbreaking, I get the same result when I re-size the window.

Also, we're still looking at several mouse-clicks / keystrokes...

OK. This worked. That is, Format>textstyle>Nonbreaking then type the space.

That is quite an interruption to the typing...

I'll have to figure out how to put in a feature request...

Can you think of a reason why Ctrl+Shift+Space would not be a widely acceptable shortcut in Thunderbird?

Thanks, Mark.

No, but you could program a key to Alt+O, S, N and a space (alt only with O)
