About this Mod
NNBSP Fix
Fixes the NNBSP character in DateFormat outputs in Java 20+ as caused by the CLDR Unicode v42 update. This was fixed in 23w17a (1.20-alpha.23.17.a) though a font rendering revamp and was introduced in 11w49a (1.1-alpha.11.49.a), which, fun fact, was the same version that put the Save and Quit to Title button into title case.
Another way of fixing this would be to set the java property -Djava.locale.providers=FALLBACK, which is what I do for my speedrunning instances (JRE or COMPAT also work, but they are set to be removed in the future).
Supports Fabric 1.14-1.19.4, Legacy Fabric 1.3.1-1.13.2, and Ornithe 1.1-1.14.4.
i tested 11w49a and 23w16a (the extreme snapshots) and they work, so I have no reason to believe that any other snapshot won't work (maybe really early Fabric ones if the intermediary wasn't matched but other than that).
the code for this is maybe a little cursed
