By the way argv, I did search the forums for "spaces" and I found no links suggesting it. perhaps I didn't look hard enough, but I did look :P
Also, you said mIRC obviously sorts by tokens, and thats great and all, but an extra identifier could be given at the handling of the event/alias that is the "REAL" string, without the tokens being parsed, basically we are being limited
only to the usage of tokens to deal with our parameters.
think about it.
