NEL
ℹ️ About
The Next Line (NEL) character (U+0085) is a C1 control code that acts as a mandatory line break. Historically derived from EBCDIC systems, it is treated by Unicode as a Paragraph Separator (B). Unlike the standard Line Feed (U+000A) or Carriage Return (U+000D), NEL is often used in mainframe environments and specific text processing protocols to signal the end of a line and a move to the next.
⚠️ Note: Do not confuse with … (U+2026 Horizontal Ellipsis), which may appear visually similar in some font fallback scenarios despite having entirely different functions.
