nolbreaks – No line breaks in text
Use \nolbreaks{some text} to prevent line breaks in “some text”. This has the advantage over \mbox{} that glue (rubber space) remains flexible. Most common cases are handled here (\linebreak is disabled, for example) but spaces hidden in macros or { } can still create break-points.
