ASCII is the same the world over, it stands for American Standard Code for
Information Interchange.
Now i'm no Linux expert, but i think that if you hold down the Alt key and type
255 on the numeric keyboard (the right side of the keyboard), that you wil get a
hardspace.
Mind you, Alt+255 is _not_ ASCII, but it would generate an "invisible character"
if you will so that you won't disturb the art itself.
