I guess the thing that it
doesn't handle is having an actual space in your desired mask, such as
in your example of transforming 'ABCDEFGHI' into 'AB-CD-EFGH I'. So
instead of using a space as the "fill placeholder", you have to pick
something that can't show up in your mask.


that is a good point. I would handle that by adding a 3rd parm. "text
substitution marker". By default it is the space. But if you change it to
something like '*' the mask would be '**-**-**** *' .
