Usage

The existence of this template has not been discussed, and the consequences have not been examined, usage is not recommended...

The intention is replace an ellipsis with single, non-breaking spaces between the ellipsis marks.

The following shortcuts have been created:

{{...}} The keyboard characters for full stops/periods, unspaced
{{. . .}} The keyboard characters for full stops/periods, with single spaces
{{}} The ellipsis glyph

Example:

It is a worse disgrace.{{...}}" her full rage burst out at last, "{{...}} a worse disgrace than the hospitals at Scutari."

will render as:

It is a worse disgrace.. . ." her full rage burst out at last, ". . . a worse disgrace than the hospitals at Scutari."
