Line breaks don't generally matter in the output of a CGI program (HTML).
My bad. I was not writing or reading from html. CGI.pm *seemed to be*
encoding linebreaks in such a way that the downstream application broke.
I will happily agree that it was my incompatence in using it ...
however, by replacing with the bad code the script worked, the app
worked, and is working still.
Sure didn't want to start off a flamewar when my original problem was
purely idiocy and crossed eyes. Guess I'll stay off this NG
