Do not render a soft hyphen that directly follows a visible hyphen [patch] - #149

Conversation
ChunkWord marked the chunk after "well-" as hyphenated when a soft hyphen followed the visible one, so a break there rendered "well--" and overhung the line width. The visible hyphen already ends the chunk, so the soft hyphen no longer marks the next one.

Fixes #135
What changed
ChunkWordsplits a word after a visible hyphen and resetshyphenBefore. A soft hyphen right after that visible hyphen then took the "consecutive soft hyphens" branch, which sethyphenBefore = trueon the next chunk. When the wrap broke at that point, the iterator appended a second-. So"well-known".NominalWordWrap(5, 1)produced"well--", which is 6 characters on a 5-character line.That branch now sets
hyphenBeforeonly when the previous chunk does not already end in-, which is the fix the triage suggested. The visible hyphen already marks the break, so the soft hyphen adds nothing. Consecutive soft hyphens after ordinary text keep their existing behaviour.Tests
In
StringExtensionsTests:NominalWordWrapDoesNotDoubleAVisibleHyphenFollowedByASoftHyphenis the issue's case. It expects["well-", "known"].NominalWordWrapDoesNotDoubleAVisibleHyphenFollowedBySeveralSoftHyphenscovers the same position with two soft hyphens.NominalWordWrapKeepsAVisibleHyphenFollowedByASoftHyphenOnOneLineWhenItFitschecks that the unbroken text is stillwell-known, with the soft hyphen stripped.Verification
StringExtensions.csreverted, the first two tests fail. The third passes either way; it guards against regressions.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
