We have very clear rules for spaces and underscores: in formal values all spaces are substituted by underscores (to make it "one word" basically). Formal values are defined in our wiki, are a limited set of values etc. and do not pose problems because they have to be used as defined. On the other hand there are free values for stuff like names or operators. These have to be written in the "correct" way and can contain any kind of characters, including spaces. No substitution will be made (i.e. they will be transparently escaped, ideally). cheers, Martin
