You can use spaces.dll to help space it out based on the $len(). Just remember that it will not line up for everyone. Different fonts will make it look different even if it looks perfect for you.
Btw, I didn't notice your edit above. Don't use the 9--1 method for $gettok() because you don't know if it starts at $9 or some other number. Use the -1 I showed below your edit.
@Tomao: It was already tokenized (in that it's already in $1- form). Because only spaces are used as separators and because spaces can be in one of the items, tokenize isn't going to be of any use.
