I am running the script as follows:

1. First I went to AS/400 shell by typing 'qsh'

2. and from shell,

perl tstcmd

======================================

I have tried with ftp (ASCII mode) and also tried by writing the program using

AS/400 editor itself. But without success.

I have already given how I am running the script.

The OS is OS/400 V5R3.

Just like to add I have written some programs on AS/400 in the past and executed from shell similarly. I have checked my script in

VSlick Edit and by displaying sepcial chars. It seems the newlines are coming as expected. At least similar to my other existing programs.
