title: Regex replace with correct spacing
body: <p>I need help on some regex problem with chinese characters in python.</p>
  
  <p>"拉柏多公园" is the correct form of the word, but in a text i found "拉柏 多公 园", what regex should i use to replace the characters.</p>
  
  <pre><code>import re
  
  name = "拉柏多公园"
  line = "whatever whatever it is then there comes a 拉柏 多公 园 sort of thing"
  line2 = "whatever whatever it is then there comes another拉柏 多公 园 sort of thing"
  line3 = "whatever whatever it is then there comes yet another 拉柏 多公 园sort of thing"
  line4 = "whatever whatever it is then there comes a拉柏 多公 园sort of thing"
  
  firstchar = "拉"
  lastchar = "园"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>i need to replace the strings in the lines so that the output line will look like this</p>
  
  <pre><code>line = "whatever whatever it is then there comes a 拉柏多公园 sort of thing"
  line2 = "whatever whatever it is then there comes another 拉柏多公园 sort of thing"
  line3 = "whatever whatever it is then there comes yet another 拉柏多公园 sort of thing"
  line4 = "whatever whatever it is then there comes a 拉柏多公园 sort of thing"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>i tried these to but the regex is badly structured:</p>
  
  <pre><code>reline = line.replace (r"firstchar*lastchar", name) #
  reline2 = reline.replace ("  ", " ")
  print reline2
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>can someone help to correct my regex?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
