Richtypo: HTML and Markdown typography enhancer for Node.js

Richtypo prepares your texts to publication by improving typography, like fancy quotes (" → “”), dashes (- → —), and adding non-breaking spaces to make the text prettier and more readable by avoiding undesired line breaks.

Richtypo comes with typography rules for English, French, and Russian, and you can customize them and create your own rules — each rule is an independent JavaScript function.

Have a look at the example page and its source.
