If you want to replace the space between some character and the = sign, you
can just replace a space followed by = with =. If you only want to remove the space between some specific character X and the = sign, check "Match wildcards", then: Find what: (X) (=) Replace with: \1\2 X would be your character, and note the space between (X) and (=). Stuff in (brackets) can be re-used: \1 inserts the first (bracketed expression), \2 the second, and so on. If you have a whole list of characters X, Y, Z, and want to remove the space between any of them and the =, use ([XYZ]) instead of (X).
