All texts in KDE are in utf8 so you will need to include the utf8 
representation of 00A0.

That happens to be "\302\240". (The 8-bit value 194 followed by the 8-bit 
value 160) I am not sure if you can use this notation in a msgstr though.

I am sure someone on kde-i18n-doc can tell you.

Cheers,
Waldo
