So the author may be aware of this? Do you know if he's > incorporating this in his current offering? Yes, I'm quoting his words above in the original PR. http://www.nicemice.net/par/ « The latest version of Par, released on 2001-Apr-29 » Par does not seem to be updated on a regular basis, it is rather stable. So I don't think an update will soon be available. Discussion with the author has happened by the end of last year, and I haven't heard from him since then. Furthermore, the problem only arises on FreeBSD, because it's the only system I know of that includes the non-breaking space in the class of space characters in the Standard C Library.
