I did some more investigation about the subject and found out that
indeed the copied script has invisible characters not known by the
locale C as used in picoreplayer. I found a 'tool'
(https://www.soscisurvey.de/tools/view-chars.php) to view invisible
characters .

The characters copied from the website
https://docs.picoreplayer.org/projects/add-a-display/ appeared to be  a
Non-breaking space see 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-breaking_space. Introducing these
characters into to your script on your picorepayer will fail the
script.

As an advice to de writers of the docs files, please remove de
characters which are not in de locale “C” if copy paste is mentioned.
