Re: API to format text for a command?

API? Not that I'm aware of, but someone please surprise me!

Is this for CL? I trust SQL or RPG with the REPLACE functions are not an
option.

Wouldn't your example need to be returned with the surrounding quotes as
well? I.e.:
'This is ''text'' for a description'

Folks:

Does anyone know if there is an API that will take text and return it
formatted to be used as a command parameter?

For instance: if I provide the text: This is 'text' for a description
It would return: This is ''text'' for a description
