Team,

Honestly, I didn't want to go and look for the already posted proposals

for

new TRs in RPG.

If this already exists and was rejected, just throw me a lot of rotten

eggs

(LOL).

I am thinking of a new BIF: %SPACES(nSpaces)

This would help a lot to stuff in a string a number of spaces when
concatenating several pieces of other strings.

Example:

stmfString = var1 + %SPACES(50) + var2 + %SPACES(20);

The literal number of spaces can also be a variable containing a valid
positive value for the number of spaces to stuff in.

Opinions? (Or rotten eggs).

Thanks,

JS
