That character is used so much in Persian writing. And it makes the text difficult to read. I tried to make my terminal display it correctly but I couldn't I was wondering maybe I could use vim syntax concealing to get rid of it. Can I? How?
:syntax match ZeroWidthNonJoiner "[\u200c]" conceal cchar=😄
You need to check :h conceallevel, I set it to 2 personally. Otherwise, you may not get conceal to work as you expect.

@yukashimahuksay there's no way to disappear characters afaik, you can only substitute for another visible one. – pepper_chico Oct 12 '19 at 15:42

@yukashimahuksay maybe replacing for a whitespace is good enough. – pepper_chico Oct 12 '19 at 15:45

intrestingly, I did that and also cleared the highlight and now it appears just as I want. without showing anything. – yukashima huksay Oct 12 '19 at 17:21
