…or install `dos2unix`, which is a bit smarter than `tr` and also has a Mac mode:

        dos2unix -c mac your-file.txt

This will convert your-file.txt from <CR> to <LF> line endings, in place. To convert all files in a folder (and nested folders), try:

        find my-folder -type f -exec dos2unix -c mac '{}' \;

It's safe to run dos2unix on files that already have <LF> line endings; it just skips them. Also dos2unix will detect binary files and cowardly refuse to convert them.

Hope this helps.

Or 'tr' if you're a command-line junkie:

        tr '\r' '\n' < in-file > out-file

I just found out I created a whooooole bunch of files using Legacy Mac OS linefeeds instead of Unix linefeeds. Is there a way to mass-change all of those at once, or do I have to literally open up a couple hundred files to click the dropdown to the right value and then save and close?
