  1. A thing that joins two separate items, e.g. software to connect video or music clips.

    The zero-width joiner (ZWJ) has a code point but no corresponding symbol. It is used to connect two or more other Unicode code points to create a new "compound character" with a unique glyph all its own. […] I'm making a point of mentioning Ninja Cat because it is another example of the use of zero-width joiners.

  2. A person who joins societies or organizations.

    I am not a joiner. I am reluctant to sign up as a member of any organization, because I generally can't find myself or my ideas in it.

  3. Synonym of hensopper.
