You're missing the point. First of all, please don't top-post. > Not sure if this image will go through the list mailer, but if not > basically the comment at the bottom only has one space between words > instead of many: I was not asking to see the image generated by rrdtool. I wanted you to see the difference in quoting techniques when you are using variables. RRDtool is not printing the spaces because it is not getting the spaces. At least, that's what I suspect. Your problem is not necessarily RRDtool related at all. Try to pinpoint the problem by taking rrdtool out of the equasion. Use something simple, such as echo. Alternatively, run rrdtool "by hand" using many spaces in a COMMENT. See if that works. If it does, you are suffering from a problem in your perl code, not from a bug in rrdtool.
