in reply to An optimal way to induce CRLF using perlio

If you just want to replace LF by CR+LF, you can use substititution: 
$message =~ s/\n/\r\n/g;

Re^2: An optimal way to induce CRLF using perlio

    i tried hard coding \r\n into the string. I read online that the curl command sends data as ascii, so it wont interpret the \r\n as a CRLF. Thats when i thought of using the :crlf perlio approach i mentioned in the question.

      Shell escapes are weak sauce, use system, use Capture::Tiny 
      use Capture::Tiny qw/ capture /;
my($stdout, $stderr, $exit) = capture {
    system '.../curl', ...',"\r\n\r\n...";
};;

        using system to execute the curl command was giving me the 2nd issue i spoke of.(malformed headers) . Luckily the post i mentioned advised back ticks which makes it work.
        will read about the other Capture::Tiny thing..Ok. thanks
