Unfortunately it is not my app so I have no way to fix it, and testing
showed that anything after java 1.3.1 acts the same with the removal of
beginning spaces.
Which boggles my mind since I don't know of how changing the vm would
change the behavior of the code.
My guess is there is a difference in default behavior of maybe reading some
string and in 1.3.1 it didn't skip over beginning spaces and that in later
versions reading might skip over beginning spaces?
Maybe a readline function?
Is there a way to tell java to treat a function like it was treated in an
older version?
