mirc eats multiple spaces up (and leading/trialing ones)

you can use a ctrl-o at the start of the line to make the first space not a leading one (ctrl-o is change text to ordinary)
//echo  example

or if u ned two spaces in the middle of a line, and there might be ofther codes before it then you could use ctrl-b ctrl-b (toggle bold, toggle it again)
//echo this is an  example (ctrl-r just added for effect)

see how there is no bold, becuase you turned it on then off, same event if it was on then it gets turned off then on

u can just do $chr(32)

Actually, that you cannot do. Try it and see.



Both lines echo test without leading spaces.

What you can do, is use $chr(160)



Where the second line has two leading spaces (1 for the hardspaced 160, one between the $chr(160) and the word test).

$chr(160) doesn't work on all fonts.

Just do as DaveC said. It will work for everyone. By using control codes, you can insert as much spacing as you want to and it will display correctly.
