Good question. Space is indeed a valid character in a 4cc code.
If I omit one or more spaces, it will no longer be a 4cc, but a 3cc or even
a 2cc. Jokes aside, there are probably fair arguments both ways.
I presume there's no 4cc code where the location of a space would make a
difference but all of the spaces are trailing spaces.
It's also worth noting that the formats printed are mostly for debugging
purpose and thus even getting a hypothetical case wrong is not a grave
issue. This would also support just printing them as-is though.
I'm leaning slightly towards omitting any spaces if the code has them. This
is something that couldn't be done by using a macro...
