For example, if the text "100 km" will not quite fit at the end of a line, the software may insert a line break between "100" and "km". An editor who finds this behavior undesirable may choose to use a non-breaking space between "100" and "km". This guarantees that the text "100 km" will not be broken: if it does not fit at the end of a line, it is moved in its entirety to the next line. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Non-collapsing_behavior">Non-collapsing behavior <span class="anchor" id="Noncollapsing_behavior"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Non-breaking_space&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Non-collapsing behavior"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A second common application of non-breaking spaces is in <a href="/wiki/Plain_text" title="Plain text">plain text</a> file formats such as <a href="/wiki/Standard_Generalized_Markup_Language" title="Standard Generalized Markup Language">SGML</a>, <a href="/wiki/HTML" title="HTML">HTML</a>, <a href="/wiki/TeX" title="TeX">TeX</a> and <a href="/wiki/LaTeX" title="LaTeX">LaTeX</a>, whose rendering engines are programmed to treat sequences of <a href="/wiki/Whitespace_(computer_science)" class="mw-redirect" title="Whitespace (computer science)">whitespace characters</a> (space, newline, tab, <a href="/wiki/Form_feed" class="mw-redirect" title="Form feed">form feed</a>, etc.) as if they were a single character (but this behavior can be overridden).
