For book titles that have 3 periods usually at the end (and sometimes at the start) whats the prefered method, 3 periods like "..." or a Horizontal Ellipsis "…" (that's a single character).

Most search programs will not differentiate between the 2 (Calibre even will even make the file names the same regardless adding a ".__" for both) but I just figured I would find out if there was a consensus on a best practice for handling these.
