I use a function that inserts line breaks ("\n" as escape sequence) according to some criterion when there are blanks in the string.
e.g. "some text \nand some more text".

What I want now is another form of a blank, so my function will not insert a Ф\n" at that point.
e.g. "some text\spaceand some more text"

Here "\space" stands for some escape sequence for a  blank, which is what I am looking for. 
So what I need is something that will appear as a blank when printed but not in the string itself.

TIA
