Short answer: $SpaceWikiWords = 1


Longer answer (From PmWiki/Questions):

Q: (October 13, 2006) Ugh.. I really searched a lot, but all I found was 
a script for "_" in the cookbook that didn't really work... I'd so much 
like to use the pagelist function, but it's so ugly to see all the Names 
listed in one big Word. Instead I want to have spaces between the words 
like when I first created the page. So that the spaces don't disappear, 
you know what I mean. So "This is a Title" gets "ThisisaTitle" now in my 
index, but I want it with spaces. I also created the links with spaces 
and they work perfectly well.

A: What I do is: (1) Add $SpaceWikiWords = 1; to my config.php file and 
(2) use the fmt=#title in my pagelists, which formats links as 
[[$FullName|+]], where the alias "|+" grabs the page title, if any, 
otherwise the page name. Together, these end up giving me what I want.

The other thing you could do is to start giving your pagenames a title 
(:title This is the Name of This Page:) and, as above, using fmt=#title.

Q: Great! It works fine, I am happy (did the Spacewikiwords solution). 
Thanks a lot for your competent and quick help!
