I use a function that inserts line breaks ("\n" as escape sequence) according
to some criterion when there are blanks in the string.
e.g. "some text \nand some more text".
What I want now is another form of a blank, so my function will not insert a
\n" at that point.
e.g. "some text\spaceand some more text"
Here "\space" stands for some escape sequence for a blank, which is what I am
looking for.
So what I need is something that will appear as a blank when printed but not in
the string itself.
TIA
