prepend append without spaces

Hello all,

I am working on a patch can be used to type text into a textedit box but I cannot seem to do this without having additional spaces between the characters. See attached patch... Perhaps there is a better way to do than using prepend/append?

thank you,

Don't use prepend/append. Look into sprintf. Might be more finicky but it's THE way to format messages when whitespace matters.

[combine] is the other option...
