Ok,  have saved the file with Windows notepad as ANSI, Unicode, Unicode big
endian, and UTF-8.

Both Unicode options give me the output with the extra spaces.  ANSI and
UTF-8 allow me to see the files as I would expect to see them.

Does this mean it's necessary to change the encoding for any files I might
need to cat, grep awk, etc.?
