Note that the two "set" lines refer to different environment variables.  The 
first one sets "TextNormal" to the value " 0xe5".  The second one sets the 
variable "TextNormal " to the value " 0x1f".

After executing those lines, "TextNormal" will still contain the " 0xe5" 
value set on the first line.  A separate variable, "TextNormal ", will 
contain the " 0x1f" value.

While filePro can be changed to handle the case of leading spaces in the 
value, it cannot handle the case of spaces within the name, as that is a 
different variable.  (As noted above, you will have both variables in the 
environment.)
