I love old tech books.
From _Sony's A Guide to MSX-BASIC Version 2.0_, page 20: «(The blank space is made by hitting the space bar once.)»
Dude, you've already told us about PRINT, LET and arithmetic operations. What made you think we didn't know how to type a space yet? Also, you didn't say which key was the space bar.
@josemanuel Take some pics and show what you mean if you like!
Old pages might be interesting to look at in context... upto you
