Thank you for the clarification!
One remark ad codepage here (as Strings in Java are always codepage related): if there is UTF-16 or
UTF-32 text exchanged then it may be the case that LF and CR-LF characters are not correct. Here a
rexxtry session:
call bsf.cls
........................................... rexxtry.rex on WindowsNT
lf="0d0a"x;a="one"lf"two";say a; say a~c2x
one
two
6F6E65*0D0A*74776F
........................................... rexxtry.rex on WindowsNT
b=bsf.iconv(a, "CP437", "UTF-16")
........................................... rexxtry.rex on WindowsNT
say b;say b~c2x
o n e
t w o
FEFF006F006E0065*000D000A*00740077006F
........................................... rexxtry.rex on WindowsNT
d=bsf.iconv(a, "CP437", "UTF-32")
........................................... rexxtry.rex on WindowsNT
say d;say d~c2x
o n e
t w o
0000006F0000006E00000065*0000000D0000000A*00000074000000770000006F

With UTF-8 this would not be a problem:
say c;say c~c2x
one
two
6F6E65*0D0A*74776F
........................................... rexxtry.rex on WindowsNT

Would you think it to be feasible at this time to have also "raw" versions like ReadInputBufferRaw,
WriteOutputBufferRaw, WriteErrorBufferRaw such that one could process and produce binary data
exploiting the new redirecting command handlers?

The Write{Output|Error}Buffer API states:

an ADDRESS instruction.
Is there any processing done on the received data or does the
Write{Output|Error}Buffer-API
just take the receive data as is and place it as a single item to the
output sink? In this
case it would become possible to produce binary data as a result of a
command (and will
motivate the need of an additional API on the Java side to become able to
distinguish between
Strings (Reader,Writer, codepage dependent) and Streams (byte oriented, raw
data)).
