Let's take this example string : `This IS- a C/O/MPLEX STRING - look@THAT` According to regular slugifiers (https://slugify.online/), this string slugified should be `this-is-a-complex-string-lookthat` However, with default slugify(), it will returns a strange string with additional dashes, thus, not very slugify-friendly. Here the output : `this-is--a-complex-string---lookatthat` _____________ With the codes changes, slugify() returns the expected string (I just also modified the `remplacements.dart` files to my convenience, but I guess it depends on your system. ____________ **Explanations** Somehow, the `_dupeSpaceRegExp` has been fixed. Then, the substition between the two regexes `_dupeSpaceRegExp` and `_punctuationRegExp` were to fix too; I changed the order. Now works as expected.
