my REXX exec will work as a client I need to something like this to
the Windows server

text:
" this is line first"
"this is line second"


I can connect to the server but i am not able to send the text with
the concept of new line.
I want the EBCDIC new line concept to be transale in the "\n" ASCII
new line

I don't know how to set a new line in EBCDIC ....NEWLINE below in the
example

so how to create a stinng in REXX that contains the new line in it?
something like :

....
mystring = " this is line first" NEWLINE
mystring = "this is line second"
......

My plan is to use
.......
Socket('SetSockOpt',newsocketid,'SOL_SOCKET','SO_ASCII','On')
........
and then
........
Socket('Write', newsocketid, myString)
......

NEWLINE = '0D0A'x
(and btw. this is AFAICR the canonical http-linebreak (html might be
'0D'x, '0Ax, '0D0A'x,
but for mainframe, see http://www.yqcomputer.com/ )).

If your text is precomposed, try changestr('15'x, myString, '0d0a'x)
