`COMMAND` [`ARG`...]

If arguments contain spaces, they should be surrounded by double quotation marks.

Argument strings are separated from the command and any other arguments by linear white-space (' ' or '\t').

All data between the client and the server is encoded in UTF-8. (Note: In UTF-8 all standard ansi characters, 0-127 are the same as in standard ansi encoding. Also, no ansi character appears in any multi-byte characters. So, you can use standard C functions like `strlen`, and `strcpy` just fine with UTF-8 encoded strings. For example: OK encoded in UTF-8 is simply OK. For more information on UTF-8: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html#utf-8)
