Samuel,

Check out ftp://index.storsys.ibm.com/adsm/nosuppt/daily.actlog.filter.
This is a rexx program which will filter through the ADSM activity log
looking the interesting stuff.  Look for the getline: procedure and the
code that calls it.  That will show you a technique that works for piecing
together multiple message lines.  The code out there has been there awhile
and I have updated it since then, but have not gotten around to updating it
on the ftp site (in fact, I'm not sure anymore how to update it).  I am
also planning to rewrite it so that it will work with IBM's object Rexx,
and other versions of Rexx.  It was originally written to work with
Uni-Rexx on AIX, but it shouldn't be hard to port to another platform.

There are some other rexx utilities out there that you might find useful
as well.
