 App received

HOW NOW,    BROWN COW

Quoting the command preserves the lower case, even with the embedded blanks. 
(No, I did not test every permutation.)

/F procname,'How now,    Brown Cow'

App received 'How now,    Brown Cow'

Note that the quotes are included in what the app receives.

JCL PARM= is a little more consistent. //S1 EXEC FOO,PARM=HOW NOW BROWN COW

Will pass only HOW to the app.
