In some programs, the end of a line is represented by a carriage return
('\r' or 13) followed by a new line character ('\n' or 10). You may want to
use '\r\n" instead of "\n\n" because "\n\n" could make a blank line in some
programs. Here is the code to answer your question:
constant REPLACE = "\n", WITH = "\r\n"
integer i
sequence s -- the stuff to change
i = match(REPLACE,s)
while i > 0 do
        s = s[1..i-1] & WITH & s[i+length(REPLACE)..length(s)] i =
match(REPLACE,s)
end while
If you are interested in sending mail using SMTP, I have code for sending
e-mail using sockets (from winsock.ew) and SMTP. (It is still in
development, but it works...)
