I wonder if it is possible in Pharo to divide a string in lets say part of 3. so this : 'abcdefgh'

Do you really want a single string with spaces inserted or do you want a collection of substrings, each three characters (or less, for the last one)?
I need a single string with spaces inserted. So maybe I have formulate my question wrong. Very difficult if English is not your mother language and you were bad at school in languages a very very long ago.
