@typehug/en

English typography helpers.

Part of Typehug. Keep words together.

import { glue } from "@typehug/en";

glue("I have a question.");

The root export provides glue, analyze, glueRuns, ruleDescriptions, and TypeScript types. Use @typehug/en/html for glueHtml. The HTML parser is kept outside the plain-text import graph, but remains an installed dependency of the shared core.

Explain changes

Available since 0.2.0:

import { analyze, ruleDescriptions } from "@typehug/en";

const result = analyze("Wait 30 min.");
result.text; // "Wait 30\u00a0min."
result.changes[0]?.rules.map((rule) => ruleDescriptions[rule]);

result.text equals glue with the same input and options. Each change records one replaced space with UTF-16 offsets into the original string, an exclusive end, and every active supporting rule family. The package exports the AnalysisResult and TextChange types. Analysis accepts plain text and reports accepted replacements only; an empty changes array does not assess typography or explain skipped candidates.

All rule families are enabled by default. Use rules options to disable individual families. English short-word joins and short paragraph endings are aesthetic preferences.
