spacify is a way to insert a space between every character of a variable. You can optionally pass a different character (or string) to insert.
Example 5-16. spacify
<?php$smarty->assign('articleTitle', 'Something Went Wrong in Jet Crash, Experts Say.');?>
Where template is:
{$articleTitle} {$articleTitle|spacify} {$articleTitle|spacify:"^^"}
