Actually, XEDIT does understand CRLF for Byte File System files. Put the file in the Byte File System and XEDIT it using the BFS pathname and the "(BFSLINE CRLF" option. If you need to get a minidisk or SFS file into the BFS, use OPENVM PUTBFS. Use the BFSLINE NONE option -- since the file already has CRLF characters, you don't want CMS to add them when you copy the file. (Better yet, use VM's NFS server or FTP to put the file directly into the BFS in the first place.) If you want to save it back to a minidisk or SFS, you can use XEDIT subcommands to SET NAMETYPE CMS, SET FNAME fn, SET FTYPE ft and SET FMODE fm. Then FILE and you've created a CMS file with records based on the location of the CRLF line end markers.
