I would like to insert a   special character between two element.

e.g, after the i tag defined like this:

%i.icon-off

How can I do that?

Based on your comments in the other answer, here are a few different ways I'd write this:

 i.icon-off
 |  #{t "menu.logout"}

Note the extra space before '#'. The one right after the '|' is optional and gets ignored if present so you have to use one more.

Could also write

 i.icon-off
 |  {{t "menu.logout"}}

I finally found the way:

%i.icon-off
| &nbsp;
t "menu.logout"

But in other simpler cases, you can also use:

i.icon-off &nbsp;

You can one-line this and drop the % since "i" it's a known tag `i.icon-off ` – Alexander Wallace Matchneer Feb 14 '13 at 15:36
In fact, in my case, the following element is a call to an helper, so I had to use this notation. Updated the answer accordingly... – Mike Aski Feb 14 '13 at 15:57
You can still use the syntax suggested in my previous comment, followed by the `t "menu.logout"` line. I'd actually write this as i.icon-off | #{t "menu.logout"} – Alexander Wallace Matchneer Feb 14 '13 at 17:03
