Thanks Jörn.

I can see in the code that depending on the operation a token will be merged to 
the left or right token. But I can't see where (in the code) it adds a <SPLIT> 
token. Can you please point me to the right place in the code?

Thanks

Rohana

Exactly, the converter detokenizes your input tokens with the
detokenizer, now it knows which tokens will be merged
together and is able to add the <SPLIT> tag between the token instead of
just cat the tokens together.

Not sure I understand you correctly here. I mean we already have
tokenized data, the tokens do not contain
any information about the spaces between them.

Lets say we have these two strings:

1: "A    sample"
2: "A sample"

Now we use a white space tokenizer to tokenize them and
the result would be like this:
1: "A", "sample"
2: "A", "sample"

In the token representation we do not have any white spaces anymore.
