Small bug in VCF format

Recommended Posts

It seems that output to VCF is not edited for multiple spaces.

 

I have name styles with e.g. [GivenName] [OtherName] [LastName]. Many of my older ancestors used farmnames etc. extensively and the [OtherName] is a good place to put those names that are not official last names and not official given names. When printing people that do not have an [OtherName] content the above style will produce two consecutive spaces between given name and last name.

 

All printed reports seem to be formatted to eliminate these double spaces, but not so in VCF. All names in printed Box Charts have double spaces.

 

Is it possible to strip the names of extra spaces before sending them on to the VCF?
