Re: (dsssl) Jade keeps translating non-breaking space to a regular space in HTML

Well, it's good that you've found the "make formatting-instruction" 
function: you're almost there!

"make formatting-instruction" simply dumps text into the HTML file without 
escaping it. So this is a good guess:
    (make formatting-instruction data: " ")

But when Jade sees the  , it automatically replaces it with a single 
character. So the Unicode character is dumped into the file instead of the 
entity. To prevent this, either write it as   or enclose it in a 
CDATA section.

As for why your attempts to represent   as a "literal" didn't work, I 
don't know.
