During an attempt to better organize a collection of T-SQL scripts I came across a strange behaviour when converting Windows ANSI (8-bit character data) to Unicode (16-bit character data) which appears, surprisingly, to involve the ancient MSDOS convention of using Ctrl-Z (character 0x1A) to end files.
REST is
largely based on using HTTP as originally designed—which
includes respecting the intended semantics of the methods
GET and POST (basically, requests that
add or change things should use POST and not
GET; requests that view information without
altering it should use GET, not POST).

change, this file has to be updated.
