  1. The #Unicode for the question mark (?) is U+003F

    @mina
    Das mit der kuratierten /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/de - Datei steht wahrscheinlich auf der prokrastinierenden #doDO​List.

    Aktuell steht erst mal das programmieren der muscleMemory der neusten composeTastenOption und die Integration von Unicode into the memory an.

    Interessant wäre auch, die irgendwo erwähnte EURO-#Tastatur​option zu checken, kann den Tipp hier auf diesem Server gerade nicht finden:

    #ZeroWidthSpace ist in der Birne, jetzt brauch ich erst mal Tastaturaccess für ? und:
    / = uniCode U002F

  2. Today I found a #workaround for two #mastodon mis-features that have annoyed me every now and then:

    - Inability to tag only part of a word
    - Inability to separate #hashtag​s using slashes

    The magic that powers these workarounds are #unicode
    #zerowidthspace​s/​#ZWS:

    Place one inside of a tagged word and everything after it is no longer part of the tag.

    Place one after a slash and it no longer inhibits tag detection.
    (Also works for closing parens – the other special char with this property.)

  7. #Hashtag separators, copy-paste this:

    📋 #ZeroWidthSpace​Here
    `U+200B ZERO WIDTH SPACE`
    (does not prevent line breaks)

    📋 #WordJoiner⁠Here
    `U+2060 WORD JOINER`
    (prevents line breaks)

    🆓 Bonus:
    How to enter any Unicode character on Linux (GNOME), e.g. the word joiner:
    Ctrl+Shift+U 2060 Space
