Hi Phil,
Thanks so much! I downloaded the services and ran the .services file. After a bit of configuring in security prefs, I installed them, and made a keystroke shortcut for the 'macintosh line endings' service. Everything's working great now. Thanks again and best regards, Tristan From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Phil Halton Sent: Tuesday, May 20, 2014 9:56 PM To: Macvisionaries Subject: Re: reading documents I forgot, these are add-on services that aren't built into OSX. You can download the service pack from the below link. http://www.devontechnologies.com/download/products.html Once there, use VO-F to search for "WordService" and download that freeware app. Its a collection of some really great text processing services that'll be available in any COCO app that deals with text processing and appear in the services menu. You need to install them into the somewhere in the library folder - read the help file that comes with the package and it'll tell you how to do it. I heard about it on this list a few weeks ago and tried it out - glad I did.

The only conversion related services I see is converting from and to simplified Chinese text. Would it be possible to make a service under automater, replacing the newline characters with the TR terminal command? It seems I could also get the dos2unix command that's widely used on Unix systems, but that seems like an unnecessary amount of work just to convert text files. Or is there an easier solution.
