Is putting a space before colon a French thing?
As in, writing an error message like "Failed : The foo was not barred" rather than "Failed: The foo was not barred"

@clacke yes. But it's actually supposed to be a half width space.
@clacke Yes, in french we put spaces before : ; ! ?
(But not before , . and …)… don’t ask me why
@MLanselle "en typographie, « espace » est un nom féminin"
As if gendered nouns weren't complicated enough as it is. ?
@clacke see https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Conventions_typographiques section 'Espaces' for rule and list of cases.
Trust the Swiss to be the reasonable ones. ❤️
