When i send a command to the mud zMUD removes all the blank spaces before the first character. How can i stop this?

Put the command in a variable and then send @variablename. Or, you could perhaps use %repeat(" ", 3)command or something like " "command. Other than the variable, none of these are guaranteed to work and may in fact cause your command to mess up once sent to the mud (ie, the %repeat() spaces might still be removed or the quotes might be sent along with the spaces).

Why in the world would you need to send spaces before a command, though? No doubt the MUD's trying to strip them as well.

Or just use #send. For instance, #send " my command".
