[description]
[para]
The [package tcl::transform::spacer] package provides a command
creating a channel transformation which adds spacing to the data
written to it, and removes such spacing from the data read from it.
[para] The internal [package TclOO] class implementing the transform
handler is a sub-class of the [package tcl::transform::core]
framework.

[call [cmd ::tcl::transform::spacer] [arg chan] [arg n] [opt [arg space]]]
This command creates a spacer transformation on top of the channel
[arg chan] and returns its handle.
[para] The [arg space] character sequence will be added every [arg n]
bytes of data written, and on the read side the same is done in
reverse, removing the spacing. If [arg space] is not specified it
defaults to a single space character (ASCII 32).
