## What is this?
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This is a list of certain named character references, that due to legacy
|
|||
|
reasons, don’t need a trailing semicolon in HTML.
|
|||
|
For example, `©` is perfectly fine for `©`!
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## When should I use this?
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Maybe when you’re writing an HTML parser or minifier, but otherwise probably
|
|||
|
never!
|
|||
|
Even then, it might be better to use [`parse-entities`][parse-entities] or
|
|||
|
[`stringify-entities`][stringify-entities].
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Install
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In Deno with [Skypack][]:

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In browsers with [Skypack][]:

```js
|
|||

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
console.log(characterEntitiesLegacy.includes('copy')) // => true
|
|||
|
console.log(characterEntitiesLegacy.includes('frac34')) // => true
|
|||
|
console.log(characterEntitiesLegacy.includes('sup1')) // => true
|

|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## API
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This package exports the following identifiers: `characterEntitiesLegacy`.
|
|||

There is no default export.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### `characterEntitiesLegacy`
