Carrige return, tabs with the put statement - sas

Question

I want to use the data step put statement to write some html and javascript code. While I can have the resulting html file look the way I want in the browser, I don't know how to have the code be easy to read both in SAS EG and the resulting file.
I would like the resulting file to have carrige returns, tabs etc, but would like to avoid adding quotation marks to every line. Also, I need it to run in a macro. I've included some attempts below. Is it an easy way to combine the readable results of ex. 2 and ex. 3 with the coidng ease of ex. 1, like an option to set?
/* Ex 1: Easy to read in SAS EG, but no tabs or carrige returns in html-file*/
data _null_;
file "C:\Test\test1.html" encoding="utf-8" ;
put " Some code
Some code on a new line
Some indented code";
run;
/* Ex 2: Tabs and line breaks in html file, but far more cumbersome to write in SAS EG.*/
data _null_;
file "C:\Test\test2.html" encoding="utf-8";
put #4 "Some code" /
#4 "Some code on a new line" /
#8 "Some indented code";
run;
/* Ex 3: Easy to read and write in SAS EG, reads well in html file. But won't run in a macro, and resolving macro variables is more trouble than with the methods above.*/
data _null_;
input ;
file "C:\Test\test3.html" encoding="utf-8";
put _infile_;
datalines;
Some code
Some code on a new line
Some indented code
;
run;

Answer 1

For number 3 you can used PARMCARDS and RESOLVE function.
filename FT15F001 temp;
parmcards4;
Some code
Some code on a new line &sysdate
Some indented code
;;;;
%macro main;
data _null_;
infile FT15F001;
input;
file "C:\Test\test3.html" encoding="utf-8";
_infile_ = resolve(_infile_);
put _infile_;
run;
%mend;
%main;

Answer 2

A comment from Tom suggested I should use PROC STREAM. This proved way easier than variations on the use of put-statements. A simplified example doesn't quite do it justice, but this proc makes it possible to write this kind of code without the tedium of getting quoting right. I still need to use &streamDelim newline; for line breaks, but that's a small price to pay. Example of current setup;
/* Ex 4. Proc stream*/
%macro chartx();
%let cr=%str(&streamDelim newline;);
Some code &cr
Some code on a new line &cr
Some code on a new line, with resolved macro variable &sysdate &cr
some indented code &cr
%do i=1 %to 1;
Some code from a loop
%end;
%mend;
%macro makepage();
filename testfile "C:\Test\test4.html";
proc stream outfile=testfile;
BEGIN
%chartx
;;;;
%mend;
%makepage
