for indivuals trying to compress their documents as much as possible

decompression, using a litteral ' ' character (chr(160)) is also the
same as . I would personally advise against it, as most text
editors do not show it as a different character than space. Also note
that the high bit may get lost in email encoding, so it's possible that
the character in quotes will be converted to a normal space by the time
it gets to you....
