為什麼你們就是不能加個空格呢？

如果你跟我一樣，每次看到網頁上的中文字和英文、數字、符號擠在一塊，就會坐立難安，忍不住想在它們之間加個空格。這個 Google Chrome 外掛正是你在網路世界走跳所需要的東西，它會自動替你在網頁中所有的中文字和半形的英文、數字、符號之間插入空白。

漢學家稱這個空白字元為「盤古之白」，因為它劈開了全形字和半形字之間的混沌。另有研究顯示，打字的時候不喜歡在中文和英文之間加空格的人，感情路都走得很辛苦，有七成的比例會在 34 歲的時候跟自己不愛的人結婚，而其餘三成的人最後只能把遺產留給自己的貓。畢竟愛情跟書寫都需要適時地留白。

與大家共勉之。

Chrome Extension

Install 為什麼你們就是不能加個空格呢？ and it spaces every page you browse. It also comes with the AI Spacing feature:

AI Spacing

The same symbol can mean totally different things in different contexts:

• For +:
  • 這裡沒有18+的內容 means "or more" => 這裡沒有 18+ 的內容
  • Switch 2+瑪利歐賽車世界同捆組 joins two things => Switch 2 + 瑪利歐賽車世界同捆組
• For -:
  • 女朋友今天的氣溫是-273.15度 is a negative number => 女朋友今天的氣溫是 -273.15 度
  • 博客來-4% 法則：讓錢活得比你久的提領金律 is a separator => 博客來 - 4% 法則：讓錢活得比你久的提領金律

Regex rules can't distinguish semantic nuances like these, so the extension asks an LLM. It uses Chrome's built-in Prompt API, which runs Gemini Nano on your device. Fully offline, nothing leaves your machine. It's free, btw.

GPT-6 Astra writes the prompts. It runs the prompt-experiments skill: propose a change, then test it against the real Gemini Nano in Chrome. When a case fails, it interviews Gemini Nano for clues. When progress stalls, it searches online for new approaches to test. Prompts for a model, tuned by a bigger model, judged on real data.

JavaScript Library

Opinionated paranoid text spacing: automatically inserts whitespace between CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) and ANS (alphabetical letters, numerical digits and symbols).

npm install pangu --save-exact

See the changelog or npm for details.

Browser

Make sure to import from pangu/browser in ESM, which is the DOM-aware build (spaceNode(), autoSpacePage()) with matching TypeScript types and resolves correctly across all bundlers.

import pangu from 'pangu/browser'; // use this with a bundler
// or
// import pangu from 'pangu/browser/standalone'; // use this if no bundler, it's one self-contained file
// or
// <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/pangu@latest/dist/browser/pangu.umd.js"></script> <!-- use this if you don't use ES module, it sets window.pangu -->

const text = pangu.spaceText('當你凝視著bug，bug也凝視著你');
// text = '當你凝視著 bug，bug 也凝視著你'

pangu.spaceNode(document.getElementById('main'));

if (document.readyState === 'loading') {
  // Start automatic text spacing once the page is ready
  // Consume the stream of DOM mutations and space dynamic content via MutationObserver
  document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => pangu.autoSpacePage());
} else {
  pangu.autoSpacePage();
}

Replace x.y.z with the version you want to use.

Node.js

import pangu from 'pangu';
// or
// const pangu = require('pangu'); // use this if you're still using CommonJS

const text = pangu.spaceText('與PM戰鬥的人，應當小心自己不要成為PM');
// text = '與 PM 戰鬥的人，應當小心自己不要成為 PM'

const content = await pangu.spaceFile('/path/to/text.txt');
