thought this might be of interest to the fink users out there. Install 'recode' and setup an alias of:
alias dos2unix='recode ibmpc..lat1' then 'dos2unix File.file' will convert File.file from dos-line endings to unix ones. I assume lat1 means Latin-1, which is ISO 8859_1, the most common form of 8-bit ASCII. Hen | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be March 25.
