Variable SELECTABLE_INVISIBLE_CHAR_OR_WHITESPACE_CLASS`Const`

SELECTABLE_INVISIBLE_CHAR_OR_WHITESPACE_CLASS: "‍   　‌⁠‎‏" = '\u200d\u2003\u2002\u0020\u00a0\u202f\u2009\u200a\u3000\u200b\u200c\u2060\u200e\u200f'

The contents (without surrounding [ ]) of a regex character class matching Paratext-9-selectable invisible characters and white space characters.

These are the characters listed in Paratext 9's "Whitespace and invisible characters drop-down" that the user can insert into the text:

Code point	Name
U+200D	Zero-width joiner
U+2003	Em space
U+2002	En space
U+0020	Space
U+00A0	No-break space
U+202F	Narrow no-break space
U+2009	Thin space
U+200A	Hair space
U+3000	Ideographic space
U+200B	Zero-width space
U+200C	Zero-width non-joiner
U+2060	Word joiner
U+200E	Left-to-right mark
U+200F	Right-to-left mark

Usage in regex character classes: wrap this in [ ] to create a character class, e.g.:

const regex = new RegExp(`[${SELECTABLE_INVISIBLE_CHAR_OR_WHITESPACE_CLASS}]`);

Note: more white space characters are allowed in Paratext 9 but are not selectable in the UI and are not supported as thoroughly as these characters are. See isWhiteSpace for more information.

This corresponds to the character set used by CharExtensions.IsInvisibleCharOrWhitespace from ParatextData.dll
