Hi,
Note that $chr(160) might not be a space in some fonts, but I've never encountered it.
The following alias might be handy for you:
alias space return $str($chr(160),$iif($1,$1,1))
Usage:
$space or
$space(N) Example: //echo -a This $space is a string $space(4) to check out the spaces.
The remarks from Danthemandoo still stand, so $space will actually be 3 spaces in total, which is an extra of 2. If you really only want only 1 extra space then like he said you have to use $+
Example: //echo -a This $+ $space shows just 1 extra space (total of 2)
