I would like to strip all extra/ unnecessary spaces from a string. Meaning, if 
there are two or more space characters next to each other, I want to strip all but 
one. How can I do this?

Answer:

Solve 1:

1   { ... }
2   st := 'This    is a   test';
3   p: pos('  ', st);
4   while p <> 0 do
5   begin
6     delete(st, p, 1);
7     p: pos('  ', st);
8   end;
9   { ... }



Solve 2:

10  { ... }
11  while pos('  ', st) > 0 do
12    st := StringReplace(st, '  ', ' ', [rfReplaceAll]);
13  { ... }
