===== <<nobr>> =====

The <<nobr>> [[macro]] removes all of the line breaks in the enclosed text.

==== Usage ====

>%%<<%%nobr%%>>%% //Text// %%<<%%endnobr%%>>%%

==== Motivating example ====

In some cases, you'll want to do several things with macros at once. For example, in this [[passage]]:

> All you possess is an Axe (note under Weapons on your Action Chart) and a Backpack containing 1 Meal (note under Meals on your Action Chart).

(Joe Dever, //Flight from the Dark//)

You'd probably want to set both the protagonist's weapon and number of meals. You can do this without any extraneous whitespace appearing in your story by putting all the [[<<set>>]] statements on the same line:

<code>
All you possess is an Axe and a Backpack containing 1 Meal. <<set $meals to 1>> <<set $weapon to "axe">>
</code>

This is not particularly readable, however. The <<nobr>> macro can help in these situations, like so:

<code>
All you possess is an Axe and a Backpack containing 1 Meal. <<nobr>>
<<set $meals to 1>>
<<set $weapon to "axe">>
<<endnobr>>
</code>

All the line breaks between <<nobr>> and <<endnobr>> are eliminated.

  * The ''nobr'' [[tag|passage tag]] can be applied if you want every line break in the passage to be removed, without having to insert the macro tags around the entire text.
  * The [[<<silently>>]] macro was used for roughly the same purposes as <<nobr>> prior to version 1.4.0.
