Compulsory space between words

janSame o, thanks so much for your handy tool!

Although it is not necessary to put a space between words (and probably more efficient when typing), I found myself better off doing that, but intermittent missing was inevitable to me. I wonder if I can somehow disable translating non-space strings into linja-pona.

Advantage of compulsory space:

  • Word parsing is unambiguous (e.g. "jan lili li lukin" / "jan li lili lukin" vs. "janlilililukin")
  • Easy to insert/delete words (e.g. using Ctrl-ArrowKey on Windows to move the cursor word-by-word)
  • Translating back to the Latin alphabet is easy (just switch the font without worrying about spaces I occasionally forget to put).

Thanks so much!
